I love anything with basil and mozzarella and this quick and easy recipe features both of these flavors in a light and delicious summery salad. The peaches are perfect right now and this is the perfect salad to serve with any meal but definitely a great addition to those grilled meals.
Ingredients
- 3 peaches peeled or unpeeled - your choice
- 1 cup fresh basil leaves torn or cut into small pieces
- 8 ounces mozzarella pearls or whole cut into small pieces
- 2 tsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp freshly ground nutmeg Can substitute powdered but I prefer grating my own.
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/8 tsp pepper
Servings: small portions
Instructions
- Cut each peach into 8 wedges and then cut each wedge in half.
- In a large bowl combine the peaches, basil and mozzarella. Pour oil over all.
- Sprinkle with grated nutmeg, salt and pepper and toss gently to blend flavors.
- Serve cold or at room temperature. Salad can also be covered and refrigerated for several hours.
