Ingredients
Balsamic Vinaigrette
- 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
- 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp whole grain mustard
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
- 1/8 tsp freshly ground black pepper
Salad
- 6 oz baby greens washed and dried
- 2 Summer-ripe peaches cored and cut in half. Leave skin intact.
- 1/4 fennel bulb cored, outside skin removed and very thinly sliced
- 1/4 red or sweet onion thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup almonds sliced
- honey for drizzling
- 4 oz crumbled feta cheese optional
Instructions
- Make the grilled peaches: Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high and oil the grill. Place peach halves cut side up on a plate and drizzle with honey. Grill, cut side down, for 3-4 minutes, until the honey caramelizes but the peaches are still firm. Remove peaches from heat and set aside to cool for 15-20 minutes. Once cooled, slice the peaches into wedges.
- While the peaches are resting, make the vinaigrette. Combine all dressing ingredients in a lidded glass jar and shake well to combine.
- To assemble the salads, arrange greens, peach slices, fennel, onion, almonds and Feta (if using) on two serving dishes. Drizzle with dressing and serve right away.
