Tomato Peach Berry Salad

A colorful fruit salad made from heirloom tomatoes, peaches, and strawberries.

Salad

  • 3 tomatoes (cut into 8 segments per different colored heirloom )
  • 2 ripe peaches (cut into six segments per )
  • 5 strawberries (halved and thinly sliced )
  • 1 T fresh chopped thyme
  • 1 T fresh chopped chives
  • 2 T fresh julienne basil
  • 1 oz organic Coeur De Chevre
  • salt and pepper

Dressing

  • 2 T diced shallots
  • 1/3 C olive oil
  • 1/3 C Apple cider vinegar
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1/2 t Dijon mustard

  1. First gather and wash all the veggies and herbs. Chop the chives and thyme, julienne the basil.

Prep peaches

  1. Boil some water and place the peaches in them until the skin splits (<1min) and remove from the water.

  2. The skins should peel right off. Slice the peach in half, then slice six segments per half abd set aside,

Prep tomatoes + strawberries

  1. Slice the tomatoes into eight segments per tomato.

  2. Strawberries are sliced in half, then cut up into smaller sections.

Dressing

  1. Make dressing: Add all to a bowl and whisk.

Serving

  1. Arrange all the veggies and fruit in a display bowl, I placed tomato and peach all around the perimeter and smaller slices in the center with the strawberries.

  2. Crumple the cheese on top, sprinkle on the previously cut herbs, add a pinch of salt and pepper. Add the dressing so the salad marinades a bit.

Someone mentioned a tomato-peach salad and since I had some ripe strawberries out back I sliced those in half and then chopped them up and added to this dish. When I served it to my family I included a French flat bread called Farinata.
