Fresh Peach Burrata Salad - featured image

A light and refreshing summer salad featuring ripe peaches, creamy burrata, savory prosciutto, and a sweet-tangy honey balsamic drizzle. Perfect for quick meals or entertaining.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 ripe peaches, sliced
  • 8 oz burrata cheese
  • 6 oz thinly sliced prosciutto
  • 4 cups mixed baby arugula and spinach leaves
  • Handful of fresh basil leaves, torn
  • 1/4 cup toasted pine nuts or walnuts (optional)
  • 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, honey, and extra virgin olive oil until smooth and slightly thickened. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
  2. Gently wash and pat dry peaches. Slice into thin wedges carefully to avoid bruising.
  3. In a large salad bowl, combine baby arugula, spinach leaves, and torn basil leaves. Toss lightly.
  4. Arrange peach slices evenly over the greens. Tear or slice burrata into chunks and nestle among the peaches.
  5. Drape prosciutto slices around the salad, folding gently to create texture.
  6. Optionally, sprinkle toasted pine nuts or walnuts on top for crunch.
  7. Drizzle the honey balsamic dressing evenly over the salad just before serving.

Notes

Keep burrata chilled until just before serving to maintain creamy texture. Use ripe but firm peaches to avoid mushiness. Whisk dressing ingredients well; warm honey slightly if too thick. Avoid over-tossing salad after adding burrata to prevent breaking it apart. Toast nuts ahead and store airtight for up to a week.
