2 tablespoons honey or agave nectar
1/4 cup white wine vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste

Grilled Peach Arugula Salad

3 medium ripe yet slightly firm peaches, halved and pitted
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
6 cups firmly-packed arugula
4 oz fresh mozzarella cheese, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1/2 cup torn basil leaves

Instructions

Raspberry Vinaigrette

Combine raspberries, honey, vinegar, and mustard in a blender or food processor. With blender running, slowly drizzle olive oil in through the top. Blend until vinaigrette is smooth.
Strain vinaigrette through a fine-mesh sieve and discard solids. Season vinaigrette with salt and pepper to taste and store in refrigerator until ready to use.

Grilled Peach Arugula Salad

Preheat an outdoor grill to 400F OR heat a large cast iron skillet on stovetop indoors over medium-high heat. Brush cut side of peaches with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
Place peaches cut-side down on preheated grill or pan and let cook 2-4 minutes until grill marks appear and peaches are slightly caramelized. Transfer peaches to a cutting board and cut into slices.
Assemble arugula in a large serving bowl and top with peaches, mozzarella, and basil. Drizzle raspberry dressing over top and toss to evenly coat. Serve salad immediately and enjoy!

Notes

Storing Instructions

Salad is best if served immediately after assembly.
