A fresh and smoky summer salad featuring grilled peaches, crusty bread, creamy burrata, and a tangy vinaigrette. Perfect for quick, flavorful meals or summer gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 medium ripe peaches, halved and pitted
  • 4 cups cubed rustic bread or sourdough, preferably day-old
  • 8 ounces creamy burrata, torn into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion (optional)
  • A handful of fresh basil leaves, torn
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
  • 1 small garlic clove, minced (optional)
  • Salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat (about 400°F).
  2. Halve and pit the peaches. Brush cut sides lightly with olive oil.
  3. Cube the rustic bread into roughly 1-inch pieces. Toast briefly on the grill for 2-3 minutes if bread is fresh.
  4. Grill peaches cut side down for 3-4 minutes until grill marks appear and peaches soften slightly. Flip and grill skin side for 2 more minutes. Remove and let cool slightly.
  5. Toss bread cubes lightly with olive oil and grill for 2-3 minutes, turning occasionally until golden and crispy. Remove and let cool.
  6. Whisk together balsamic vinegar, red wine vinegar, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper until emulsified.
  7. In a large bowl, combine grilled bread cubes, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and basil leaves. Cut grilled peaches into slices or chunks and add.
  8. Pour dressing over salad and toss gently to coat. Let sit for 5-10 minutes to allow bread to soak up dressing.
  9. Just before serving, tear burrata into pieces and scatter on top.
  10. Serve immediately to enjoy fresh grilled flavors and crunchy texture.

Notes

Use day-old or toasted bread to prevent sogginess. Keep burrata cold until just before serving for best texture. If no grill is available, use a stovetop grill pan or broil peaches and bread in the oven. Let salad rest 5-10 minutes after tossing to allow flavors to meld.
