Ingredients
  

4 ripe peaches, halved and pitted

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste

8 ounces creamy burrata cheese

4 cups arugula (or mixed greens for variety)

¼ cup sliced almonds, toasted to perfection

¼ cup balsamic reduction for a sweet acidity

2 tablespoons honey for a natural sweetness

Fresh basil leaves, for a fragrant garnish

Instructions
 

Preheat the Grill: Start by preheating your grill to medium-high heat, ensuring it's ready to impart a smoky flavor to the peaches.

    Prepare the Peaches: In a mixing bowl, gently toss the halved peaches with the olive oil. Season with a pinch of salt and freshly cracked black pepper, making sure the peaches are evenly coated with the mixture.

      Grill the Peaches: Place the peach halves cut-side down on the sizzling grill. Grill for about 4-5 minutes or until you see beautiful grill marks and the peaches become tender and juicy.

        Arrange the Salad: On a large serving platter, layer the arugula to create a colorful bed for the salad. Tear the burrata cheese into generous dollops and scatter them beautifully over the greens for a creamy texture.

          Add the Grilled Peaches: Once your peaches are grilled to perfection, carefully remove them from the grill. Arrange them on top of the burrata and arugula for a stunning visual contrast.

            Add Toppings: Evenly sprinkle the toasted almond slices over the salad, adding a delightful crunch. Next, drizzle the balsamic reduction and honey artistically across the dish for an added layer of flavor.

              Garnish: Complete your masterpiece with fresh basil leaves, scattering them on top for a pop of color and a hint of aroma that enhances the dish.

                Serve: Dive into your vibrant and refreshing summer salad right away! This dish is perfect for sharing or enjoying on your own.
