Ingredients
  

  • 2 ripe peaches halved and pitted
  • 4 cups arugula
  • 1/4 cup sliced almonds toasted
  • 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tbsp honey optional

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Balsamic Reduction: In a small saucepan, combine the balsamic vinegar and honey (if using). Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until the mixture thickens and reduces by half. This should take about 10-15 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  • Grill the Peaches: Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
  • Brush the peach halves with olive oil and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
  • Place the peaches cut side down on the grill. Grill for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until grill marks appear and the peaches are slightly softened.
  • Assemble the Salad: In a large bowl, toss the arugula with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  • Divide the arugula between two plates.
  • Place the grilled peach halves on top of the arugula.
  • Sprinkle the toasted almonds and crumbled feta over the salad.
  • Drizzle with the balsamic reduction.
  • Serve: Serve immediately, while the peaches are still warm.

Notes
