Equipment

  • sharp knife
  • cutting board
  • mixing bowl
  • griddle pan or grill

Ingredients

  • 2 medium peaches (cut into 4-8 chunks)
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 2 tablespoons honey, divided
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice (juice of half a lemon)
  • 1 medium lemon, zested
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 5 ounces spring mix
  • 5 ounces feta cheese
  • 10 ounces cherry tomatoes, halved or quartered
  • 2 ounces pecans
  • handful of basil, cut into ribbons (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat your griddle pan to medium heat. Cut up the peaches into 4-8 wedges and toss them in a bowl with 1 tablespoon of honey and 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
  • Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the hot griddle pan. Grill the peaches 1-2 minutes per side until nice grill marks form.
  • In a bowl, mix together a quick dressing of 1 tablespoon of balsamic vinegar, 3 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, lemon zest, 1 tablespoon of honey, and ½ teaspoon of salt.
  • Add spring mix to a plate. Crumble the feta and sprinkle it over the top, add the cherry tomatoes, basil, pecans, and grilled peaches.
  • Drizzle with dressing and enjoy!
  • This salad is best served immediately and we don't recommend making it in advance. If you need to store leftovers, you need to separate the ingredients into their own airtight container for up to 3 days.  We do not recommend refrigerating the tomatoes. Do not freeze.

Notes

  • Choose the best peaches - Firm peaches will be the most juicy and hold their shape when grilling. If the peach wedges are too soft, they'll break apart on the grill and be a mess to clean up!
  • Grill marks - Let the peaches sit on the grill without moving them too much. This will ensure beautiful grill marks and keep the peaches intact.
  • Serve immediately - ​This salad is best served warm, so enjoy it right after grilling the peaches. If you prefer a cold salad, feel free to refrigerate the grilled peaches for a bit before putting everything together.
