Ingredients
  

  • Tomatoes: 3 large ripe, sliced
  • Peaches: 3 ripe, sliced
  • Red Onion: ¼ cup thinly sliced
  • Fresh Basil: ¼ cup torn or chopped

For the Balsamic Glaze:

  • Balsamic Vinegar: ½ cup
  • Maple Syrup: 1 tbsp or more, to taste
  • Salt and Pepper: To taste

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Balsamic Glaze: In a small saucepan, combine the balsamic vinegar and maple syrup. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until the mixture is reduced by half and has a syrupy consistency, about 10-15 minutes. Let it cool to room temperature. The glaze will thicken as it cools.
  • Assemble the Salad: In a large serving bowl, arrange the sliced tomatoes and peaches. Scatter the thinly sliced red onion and fresh basil over the top.
  • Dress the Salad: Drizzle the cooled balsamic glaze over the tomatoes and peaches. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Serve: Toss gently to combine right before serving or let guests drizzle additional glaze as per their preference. Serve immediately to enjoy the freshness of the ingredients.

Notes

  • Variations: Add crumbled vegan feta or toasted pine nuts for an added texture and richness.
  • Serving Suggestions: This salad makes a refreshing side dish for grilled vegan dishes or a light standalone meal with crusty bread.
