Salad Featuring Fresh Peaches and Silky Burrata Cheese
**Peach and Burrata Salad**
This summer delight is as delicious as it appears! I suspected that my Burrata with Tomatoes and Basil would work wonderfully with peaches instead of tomatoes, and indeed, it’s fantastic. I highly recommend it.
The recipe showcases sliced peaches, fresh arugula and basil, rich burrata, and toasted pistachios, drizzled with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. It’s a lively sweet-and-savory mix that you can present as a salad or as an appetizer.
I adore fresh, straightforward summer recipes like this because they seem and taste gourmet while requiring no cooking whatsoever. This gorgeous recipe is ready in just 15 minutes!
**Serving Suggestions**
This peach salad pairs nicely with other fresh summer dishes and enhances grilled mains. Enjoy it alongside veggie burgers or grilled pizzas, pesto pasta, and grilled corn. It would be delightful with a glass of crisp white wine or rosé.

**Peach and Burrata Salad**
This summer peach salad is garnished with fresh arugula, basil, pistachios, and balsamic vinegar. Burrata cheese offers the perfect creamy touch. Recipe serves 4 salad portions or 6 appetizer portions.
**Instructions**
1. In a shallow serving bowl, mix the peaches, arugula, and basil. Drizzle in 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 teaspoon of vinegar, and stir to combine all ingredients.
2. Carefully tear open each ball of burrata and place them in the center of the peach mixture. Drizzle the burrata with the remaining 1 teaspoon of olive oil and 1 teaspoon of balsamic vinegar. Top the dish with the pistachios, some reserved basil leaves, and a pinch of black pepper. If desired, add a sprinkle of flaky salt over the cheese.
3. Serve with crostini or crusty bread on the side, if desired. This dish is best enjoyed the day it’s prepared, but leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for several days, covered.
**Notes**
*Change it up:* This dish would also be fantastic with slices of fresh mozzarella or smaller mozzarella balls if burrata isn’t available.
