At last something that is not a dessert even though you could just eat the peaches all by themselves after they are grilled with some ice cream, however, this grilled peach salad is just out of this world so you may want to wait and eat the peaches in the salad instead!
YIELD: 4 SERVINGS TOTAL TIME: 25 MINUTES
INGREDIENTS:
4 fresh peaches, halved
3 tbs olive oil
6 oz mixed greens
6 oz crumbled feta cheese
1 red onion, sliced
Dressing
1 cup balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup Truvia brown sugar blend
2 tbs extra virgin olive oil
Celtic salt and pepper to taste.
DIRECTIONS:
- To make the balsamic reduction, mix balsamic vinegar with sugar in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly until sugar has dissolved. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer until glaze is reduced by half, about 15 minutes. Keep a careful eye towards the end as you don't want to burn it. When it coats a spoon, it will be thick enough.
- Preheat your grill or stove top grill pan. Brush peaches generously with olive oil and grill on each side for about 3 minutes. You don't want the peaches to be soft and mushy so keep an eye on them.
- Transfer peaches to a clean plate and let them cool.
- In a large mixing bowl add the rest of the salad ingredients followed by the peaches. Add some of the balsamic reduction with the olive oil, salt and pepper to taste and toss to combine.
- Serve immediately.
