Summer Peach & Burrata Salad with Prosciutto on platter

This peach, burrata, and prosciutto salad is a fun twist on the classic Caprese salad made with fresh tomatoes and mozzarella. Meaning “buttery” in Italian, burrata is a fresh Italian cheese made from mozzarella and cream. The outer shell is solid mozzarella cheese, while the inside is a blend of fresh mozzarella and cream. This gorgeous summer salad is a great way to enjoy it. Sweet summery peaches make a luscious stand-in for tomatoes and contrast nicely with salty prosciutto and crunchy pine nuts.

“Holy Moly this was delicious, I could eat it every day!”

  • Made this for a dinner party. Omitted the pine nuts. It was very popular and very good. Great seasonal recipe. I didn’t have white balsamic so I used champagne vinegar and it worked fine.

    • An odd combination of ingredients but so delicious. We didn’t have white balsamic vinegar but substituted a fig balsamic that was in the pantry and it worked well.

  • Absolutely scrumptious! I love all of these ingredients separately but in combination they are so refreshing & tasty. Of course, the most important part is fresh peaches when in season.
