I’ve been loving salads so much with the warmer weather and can’t get enough of this one in particular. This peach salad is light, delicate and dressed with a cherry tomato vinaigrette to create salad perfection. But I am also in love with these Mason Jar Salads and this Chicken Cobb at the moment too! Peach salad is ideal for meal prep, summer BBQs or picnics, quick lunches, or even an appetizer. (These days I am looking for any excuse to eat it because it is so good!). I love that it’s a simple, yet elevated salad too. It’s made with minimal ingredients but what makes it so special is the vinaigrette dressing. It takes this simple salad and really makes it a memorable salad you’ll want time and time again.
Why this recipe works
It’s filled with fresh and vibrant ingredients It’s low maintenance and easy to make Can be made in advance for meal prep It’s delicious, filling and healthy! Easily customizable
Cherry tomatoes: you’ll need these for the vinaigrette dressing. Cooking the tomatoes on the stove is an extra step to make the vinaigrette but it’s all in all a 10 minutes process and soo worth it! Peaches: be sure to snag the best peak of season peaches you can find! Quinoa: the quinoa makes this salad more filling and is an easy grain to make. Feel free to swap it out with another grain or pasta. Fresh basil: lots and lots of it! Red onion: red onions have a nice bite to “spice” up this salad and offers a little crunch. Burrata: I love topping the salad with some fresh burrata or mini mozzarella cheese balls. Vinaigrette: other ingredients needed for the cherry tomato vinaigrette dressing: white wine vinegar, honey, shallots, garlic, salt and pepper
