Beach season is fast approaching, and with it comes the inevitable bathing suit diet. Watching what you eat and controlling portions is normal, but you shouldn't have to sacrifice taste to do it! Get rid of the celery sticks and rice cakes because this week, we found an easy and nutritious summer salad recipe that will leave you feeling both healthy and satisfied.
If you make this week's recipe, be sure to share it with us through Instagram and Facebook!
Ingredients
- 1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
- 2 large tomatoes, cut into pieces
- 2 large peaches, cut into pieces
- 6 ounces burrata cheese, cut into pieces
- 3 tablespoons freshly chopped basil
To make the balsamic reduction, pour the balsamic vinegar into a small saucepan. Heat over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and let simmer, swirling the pan occasionally, until reduced to about half of the original amount, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
Meanwhile, place the tomatoes and peaches on a platter or plate. Top with burrata cheese chunks and basil.
Drizzle the balsamic reduction over the salad and serve.
Note: you can find burrata cheese in most grocery stores in the cheese section. If you can't find it you can substitute fresh mozzarella. Burrata cheese is very soft and will not slice well. Just add the creamy chunks to the salad!
