Instructions

  • Whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, dijon mustard, honey, kosher salt, and black pepper in a small bowl to make the vinaigrette.
  • Toss sliced peaches, cucumbers, and fresh herbs in a large salad bowl.
  • Add mixed greens to the bowl and gently toss everything together without bruising the greens.
  • Drizzle the vinaigrette evenly over the salad and toss gently to coat without bruising the goat cheese or peaches.
  • Sprinkle chopped roasted almonds and crumbled goat cheese on top and serve immediately.

Notes

I like to use white balsamic vinegar for this recipe, but either will work! You most likely won't use all the dressing; leftovers keep refrigerated for 1-2 weeks.
