Ingredients:

• 2 ripe peaches, halved and pitted
• 8 oz burrata cheese
• 4 cups arugula or mixed greens
• 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar

Instructions:

1. Preheat the grill to medium heat.

5. On a large platter, arrange the arugula or mixed greens. Tear the burrata cheese and place it in the center.
6. Arrange the grilled peaches around the burrata.
7. Drizzle the balsamic reduction and olive oil over the salad. Season with salt and pepper.
