Ingredients
- 1 lb. heirloom tomatoes
- 2-3 peaches
- 1 avocado
- 10 leaves fresh basil
- 10 leaves fresh mint
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp white balsamic vinegar or balsamic glaze
- 1/2 tsp flakey sea salt
Instructions
- Slice tomatoes, avocado, and peaches, and arrange on a platter.
- Roll leaves of basil and mint together like a tight cigar and slice into ribbons. Scatter the ribbons on top of the fruit.
- Drizzle salad with olive oil, flakey sea salt (maldon is my favorite), and balsamic glaze. I used a white balsamic glaze.
Notes
There are only a few ingredients in this recipe so you want to make sure you are using really ripe and delicious peaches and tomatoes. You can mix up the type of peaches you use, I had white donut peaches and yellow peaches. Nectarines would also be delicious!
I love using a variety of different colored and shaped tomatoes, large, cherry, grape tomatoes, etc.
Cheese would be a welcome addition to this salad: feta cheese, goat cheese, mozzarella cheese, burrata, or even a generous dollop of fresh ricotta cheese would work quite well.
