Ingredients
- Fresh blueberries
- Juicy, ripe peaches
- Crumbled feta cheese
- Baby spinach
- Arugula
- Toasted pecans or walnuts
- Olive oil
- Balsamic vinegar
- Honey or maple syrup
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Start by washing the blueberries and peaches. Slice the peaches into thin wedges and set them aside. If you’re using nuts, toast them in a dry skillet over medium heat until golden and fragrant, about 3-5 minutes, then let them cool.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tablespoons of olive oil, 2 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar, 1 tablespoon of honey (or maple syrup), and a pinch of salt. Adjust the sweetness and acidity to your taste.
- In a large bowl, add a generous handful of baby spinach and arugula. Pour half of the dressing over the greens, tossing gently to coat.
- Gently fold in the sliced peaches and blueberries. Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese on top.
- Top the salad with the toasted nuts for that perfect crunch. Drizzle the remaining dressing over the salad if desired, and give it a light toss.
- Transfer the salad to a serving platter or individual bowls and enjoy this refreshing dish!
