Ingredients
  

4 ripe peaches, halved and pitted

8 oz burrata cheese

4 cups arugula or mixed greens

1/4 cup balsamic glaze

1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

1/2 teaspoon sea salt

1/4 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper

1/4 cup toasted pine nuts or walnuts

Fresh basil leaves for garnish

Instructions
 

Preheat the Grill: Heat your grill to medium-high. If using a grill pan, preheat it on medium heat on the stovetop.

    Prepare the Peaches: Brush the cut sides of the peach halves with a little olive oil to prevent sticking.

      Grill the Peaches: Place the peaches cut-side down on the grill. Grill for about 4-6 minutes, until they have nice grill marks and are slightly softened. Remove from the grill and let them cool for a few minutes.

        Assemble the Salad Base: In a large serving bowl or platter, spread the arugula or mixed greens as the base.

          Add Burrata: Gently tear the burrata cheese into smaller pieces and place it evenly over the greens.

            Top with Grilled Peaches: Slice the grilled peaches into quarters or sixths (depending on your preferences) and arrange them over the greens and burrata.

              Dress the Salad: Drizzle the balsamic glaze and extra virgin olive oil over the salad. Season with sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper to taste.

                Finish with Nuts and Basil: Sprinkle the toasted pine nuts or walnuts over the top and garnish with fresh basil leaves to add an aromatic touch.

                  Serve: This salad is best enjoyed immediately while the peaches are warm, but you can allow it to chill slightly if preferred.
