Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 2 large ripe peaches, sliced
  • 2 cups heirloom tomatoes, sliced
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, torn
  • 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Start by washing and slicing the peaches and heirloom tomatoes. Tear the fresh basil leaves into smaller pieces. If using feta cheese, crumble it into small pieces.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, and honey. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  3. In a large bowl, gently combine the sliced peaches, heirloom tomatoes, and torn basil leaves. Drizzle the dressing over the top and toss lightly to coat all the ingredients evenly.
  4. Transfer the salad to a serving platter or individual bowls. Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese on top, if using. Serve immediately and enjoy the fresh, vibrant flavors of summer!

Notes

Choose ripe but firm peaches for the best flavor. Mix and match different heirloom tomato varieties for visual appeal. Prepare the dressing ahead of time and assemble the salad just before serving to keep ingredients fresh.
