    Peaches, burrata, pecans, arugula all drizzled with a balsamic glaze. This peach burrata salad is an ode to summer, for sure!

    How is it the end of summer already? Where did time go and why didn't summer tell me it was going to be so crazy short? I'm a little in my feelings about all this, but just like that -- it's now freezing cold (for me anyway!) and football is on the television.

    We technically have three days left of summer, and I intend to not waste them. We can get to the squash, potatoes, and brussels sprouts in a few days. I've got the last of the summer produce from the grocery store and will just pretend it's still 85 and sunny outside. This peach and burrata salad is perhaps the easiest salad known to man and the most perfect way to say goodbye to summer properly. You don't even have to make a salad dressing.

    Peach and Burrata Salad Recipe Ingredients

    This peach and burrata recipe is more of a reminder that fresh produce is a meal unto itself. When peaches are in season, you want to let the fruit speak for itself, and this salad allows the peaches to do just that.

    The peppery arugula, sweet peaches (especially if you're lucky enough to get them in-season from The Peach Truck), creamy burrata, crunchy pecans, and tangy balsamic glaze all make a symphony of epic proportions in your mouth. If peaches were available all year, I'd happily eat this salad in the winter.

    Here's what you'll need:

    • arugula
    • peaches
    • burrata
    • pecan pieces (highly recommend you check out All The Fixins for some homegrown Georgia pecans)
    • balsamic glaze (store bought or see below to make your own!)
    • salt and pepper

    Let's Talk Burrata

    Good burrata is a bit hard to find. You can buy it at most grocery stores in the cheese section, of course, but it tends to have a thick outside layer and is not terribly creamy on the inside.

    If you have an Italian grocer near you, GO THERE! They'll likely have fresh burrata, which just cannot be beat. You want burrata that bursts when you open the ball with creamy, dreamy cheese.

    Make Your Own Balsamic Glaze

    I'm definitely cheating here and buying balsamic glaze already made. You can find this in any 'ole grocery store with all of the oils. You can easily make your own though if you have extra time. Here's how:

    1. Place 1 cup of balsamic vinegar in a small saucepan on medium-high heat until the vinegar starts boiling. Immediately reduce the heat to medium and let simmer for 20-25 minutes stirring occasionally. You'll know it's done when you dip the back of a spoon in the vinegar and the spoon is coated.
    2. Remove from the heat and let sit for a few minutes. The glaze will thicken as it cools.

    You've just made your own balsamic glaze!

    Salad Variations

    There are some other ingredients you can add to this salad that are great variations, depending on your personal preferences. Try adding:

    • Prosciutto for some salty protein.
    • Tomatoes because #summertime
    • Thick cornbread croutons that are truly next level
    • Fresh basil to make it more like a peach caprese salad

    What to Eat with Peach Burrata Salad

    • John's Baked Maryland Crab Cakes -- total summer bliss. You feel like you're eating a fancy meal (and in reality it took you 10 minutes).
    • Versatile Pulled Pork -- it's one of my top recipe for a reason!
    • Rosemary and Garlic Lamb Chops
    • Peacn Crusted Halibut to go all out with the pecans

    Enjoy the last of summer!

      No burrata at my grocery store so hoping mozzarella will work. Can’t wait to try this salad.
