Instructions

Grill peaches: Heat a grill or griddle pan to medium-high heat. Brush peach halves with olive oil and grill for 3-4 minutes on each side until grill marks appear. Let cool and slice.
Make the dressing: In a small jar, combine olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper. Whisk or shake until well combined.
Prepare the salad: Wash and dry arugula, dice avocado, toast pecans, slice onion, and chop basil.
Assemble the salad: Divide arugula among 4 plates, top with grilled peaches, avocado, burrata, blueberries, onion, pecans, and basil. Drizzle with dressing, balsamic glaze, Tabasco chipotle, and chili flakes. Alternatively, combine all ingredients in a large bowl and toss. Serve as a side or main dish.

Use ripe peaches for the best flavor.
If grilling indoors, use a griddle.
Enjoy grilled peaches fresh for optimal taste.
Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, keeping dressing and arugula separate.
