Music: Strict Joy by The Swell Season
This is a super quick and easy salad, and if fresh peaches are in season you have to try this!
*We substituted goat cheese for the mozzarella and that I would recommend, as it was creamy and had a little more flavor than fresh mozz usually does.
(Serves 2, double or triple as needed)
2 ripe peaches
Ball of mozzarella (or crumbled goat cheese)
3-4 slices of nice prosciutto
Salt and Pepper
Chili Flakes (optional)
Dark mixed greens
Fresh Mint
Olive Oil
Lemon Juice
Skin and cut the peaches up into small pieces. (About 1 peach per person.) Crumble cheese over the peaches, and also rip a couple slices of prosciutto over the top as well. Lightly season with salt if you want and definitely pepper! Mik liked it with some chili flakes as well for some kick. Add a couple of handfuls of dark mixed greens to each plate and 5 or so torn up mint leaves. Add S&P to taste.
For the dressing, simply add 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice to 5 tablespoons of olive oil and S&P, shake and you're ready to pour.
Easy right? And perfect and easy meal that tastes summery. I bet served with some nice crusty bread and butter and a glass of white wine, this couldn't be beat. Bon Appétit!
Sounds delicious. I'm going to try this one. Minus the chili flakes of course!
ReplyDeleteI'd like mine WITH chile flakes!
