Peach Burrata Salad

This Burrata Peach Salad is a refreshing mix of summer flavors that feels like a little indulgence. Creamy burrata melts into juicy, sweet peaches, while the peppery bite of arugula balances out the richness. Thin slices of raw ham add a salty, savory touch, and fresh basil brings in a burst of fragrant freshness. Crunchy toasted almonds top it all off, making each bite a satisfying blend of textures and tastes.

Notes

Choose ripe but firm peaches to ensure they’re sweet and juicy without becoming mushy. If peaches are out of season, nectarines or plums make excellent substitutes.
Use the freshest burrata you can find for the best creamy texture. If unavailable, fresh mozzarella is a good alternative.
Opt for high-quality prosciutto or raw ham for a more refined flavor. Ask your deli to slice it thinly for easy layering.
Look for baby arugula for a milder flavor if regular arugula is too peppery for your taste.
Nut-Free: Replace almonds with sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds for a nut-free crunch.
Vegetarian: Skip the prosciutto and add roasted chickpeas or grilled halloumi for a vegetarian version.
