Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 4 large heirloom tomatoes, sliced
  • 3 ripe peaches, pitted and sliced
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, torn
  • 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Start by washing and slicing the heirloom tomatoes into even slices. Pit the peaches and slice them into similar-sized pieces. Tear the fresh basil leaves into smaller pieces.
  2. In a large bowl, gently combine the sliced tomatoes and peaches. Sprinkle the torn basil leaves over the top. If using, add the crumbled feta cheese.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the extra-virgin olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and honey until well combined. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  4. Drizzle the dressing over the tomato and peach mixture. Toss gently to ensure all ingredients are evenly coated with the dressing.
  5. Transfer the salad to a serving platter or individual bowls. Serve immediately to enjoy the freshness and vibrant flavors.

Notes

Choose ripe produce for the best flavor. For extra texture, consider adding toasted nuts like almonds or walnuts. The salad is best enjoyed fresh, but the dressing can be prepared ahead of time.
