  3. Grill peaches cut-side down for 3-4 minutes until grill marks appear and peaches are slightly softened.
  4. Arrange arugula on a large serving platter.
  5. Add grilled peaches and spoonfuls of burrata (tear or spoon into chunks).
  6. Tear prosciutto into pieces and scatter over salad.
  7. Drizzle with olive oil and balsamic glaze.
  8. Sprinkle with flaky salt, pepper, and fresh herbs.
  9. Serve immediately with crusty bread.

Notes

  • Lena's Real Talk: Let burrata sit at room temperature 20-30 minutes before serving for the best creaminess
  • Grill peaches up to 2 days ahead and store in the fridge
  • No grill? Use a grill pan or broil 2-3 minutes per side
  • Double the balsamic glaze - you'll use it on everything!
  • Sophie's job is arranging the peaches. Noah's is quality control (aka eating them)
