Grilled Peach & Burrata Salad

Ingredients:

• Romaine lettuce

• Cucumber

• Burrata cheese (or mozzarella if preferred)

• Fresh peaches (firm ones work best)

• Olive oil

• Balsamic vinegar or vinaigrette

• Salt & pepper, to taste

Perfect for a hot summer evening when you want something refreshing and quick. When it's sweltering outside, the last thing you want to do is turn on the stove.

Instructions:

1. Prep the Grill:

   
   

   Preheat your grill to medium heat (about 400°F). If using a stove put that on medium heat for about 3-5 minutes.

2. Prepare the Peaches:

   
   

   Slice the peaches in half and remove the pits. Brush each side with olive oil and season lightly with salt and pepper.

3. Grill:

   
   

   Place peaches on the grill and cook for about 5 minutes, or until you see clear grill marks. Remove from the grill and let them cool slightly. (Tip: Use firm peaches so they don't turn mushy.)

4. Assemble the Salad:

   • Start by layering a platter with chopped romaine lettuce.

   • Slice the cucumber lengthwise, then cut into halves or quarters and scatter over the lettuce.

   • Slice the grilled peaches so the grill marks are visible and arrange them alongside the cucumbers.

   • Tear or cut the burrata into quarters (it may get a bit messy—and that’s totally fine!) and place it around the salad.

   • Drizzle with your favorite olive oil and a splash of balsamic vinegar or vinaigrette.

   • Finish with a pinch of salt and freshly cracked black pepper.

     

Serving Suggestions:

This salad pairs beautifully with grilled chicken, turkey, or shrimp.

Enjoy it with a crisp glass of rosé for the ultimate summer vibe.
