Ingredients

3 ripe peaches, sliced

8 oz fresh mozzarella, sliced

1 cup fresh basil leaves

2 tablespoons balsamic glaze

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt and black pepper to taste

Optional: ¼ cup toasted pine nuts

Instructions

Start by washing and slicing the peaches. Cut them into wedges or rounds, depending on your preference.

Slice the fresh mozzarella into rounds to match the size of the peach slices.

On a large serving platter, alternate layers of peach slices and mozzarella slices, creating a visually appealing pattern.

Tuck fresh basil leaves between the layers of peach and mozzarella, allowing the vibrant green color to pop against the peach and white.

Drizzle the balsamic glaze and olive oil evenly over the entire salad.

Season with salt and black pepper to taste; this will enhance the sweet and savory flavors.

If using, sprinkle the toasted pine nuts over the salad for a delightful crunch.

For the best flavor, let the salad rest for about 5 minutes before serving so the ingredients can marinate slightly.
