Ingredients
For the Salad:
- 4 ripe peaches, halved and pitted
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 4 cups mixed greens (arugula, spinach, or spring mix)
- ¼ cup crumbled feta cheese (optional)
- ¼ cup toasted pecans or walnuts, roughly chopped
For the Dressing:
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
1. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
2. Brush the cut sides of the peach halves lightly with olive oil.
3. Place the peaches cut-side down on the grill and cook for 3–4 minutes until grill marks appear and the peaches are slightly softened.
4. Remove the peaches from the grill and let cool slightly, then slice each half into wedges.
5. In a small bowl or jar, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper until well combined.
6. In a large bowl, add the mixed greens and top with grilled peach wedges, blueberries, feta cheese (if using), and toasted nuts.
7. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently until evenly coated.
8. Serve immediately as an appetizer, side dish, or light lunch.
Notes
Choose ripe but firm peaches so they hold their shape on the grill.
Toast the nuts in a dry skillet for 2–3 minutes to enhance their flavor.
For added protein, top with grilled chicken or shrimp.
The dressing can be made ahead and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
