Description
A refreshing Summer Grilled Peach Salad that combines the sweetness of grilled peaches with vibrant greens and a creamy goat cheese, topped off with a zesty basil vinaigrette.
Ingredients
2 ripe but firm peaches sliced into 8 wedges
1 tablespoon olive oil
8 ounces leafy greens (I used a mix of arugula
spinach and butter lettuce)
1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion (about 1/4 a large red onion)
1 cup cherry tomatoes sliced lengthwise
1 medium avocado diced
4 ounces goat cheese (could swap for feta cheese)
1/3 cup roasted salted pistachios roughly chopped
Basil Vinaigrette: 1/2 cup olive oil or avocado oil
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
2 1/2 tablespoons raw honey
1 1/2 tablespoons dijon mustard
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup fresh chopped basil
Instructions
- Preheat your grill to medium heat and brush the peach wedges lightly with olive oil.
- Grill the peaches for about 3-4 minutes on each side until they are caramelized and have nice grill marks.
- In a large bowl, combine the leafy greens, sliced red onion, cherry tomatoes, diced avocado, and goat cheese.
- Add the grilled peaches and chopped pistachios to the salad mix.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, honey, dijon mustard, kosher salt, and chopped basil to create the vinaigrette.
- Drizzle the basil vinaigrette over the salad and toss gently to combine.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your Summer Grilled Peach Salad!
Notes
Feel free to swap out goat cheese for feta cheese if preferred. This salad can easily be customized with other fruits or nuts.
