Wonderful summer salad. From Real Simple magazine. Enjoyable change from using tomato with mozzarella. Ingredients:
3 ripe peaches (peeled, if desired) |
1 cup fresh basil leaf, torn |
8 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese, cut into 1 inch chunks |
2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil |
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt |
1/8 teaspoon black pepper |
Directions:
1. Cut each peach into 6 to 8 wedges, then cut each wedge in half crosswise. 2. In a large bowl, combine the peaches, basil, and mozzarella. 3. Drizzle with the oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and toss. 4. (You can cover and refrigerate the salad for up to several hours.) Serve cold or at room temperature. |
