I have a hard time when people get overly excited about stuff. I am pretty even-keeled. Even when the hubs is about to get home from a separation, I don't show much emotion. I am truly ecstatic on the inside, but usually I contain it. Well this salad, is pretty darn delicious. I won't go all crazy, "flapping my arms in the air, jumping off the rooftop" excited, but I kinda felt that way when I was eating this salad.
Forgive the slightly slanted picture, I was too excited and munching on the salad to get a decent shot.

Have you ever thought to pair tomatoes and peaches together?
Me either.
Or is it me neither?

The original recipe is found here. It calls for burrata cheese.
I've never had that kind of cheese and actually I have never heard of that cheese.
Sounds good, no?
Or is it sounds good, aye?
But Ms. Too Cheap and Too Busy didn't want to go searching for the unknown cheese.
But I did have good ol' fresh moz.

Sprinkle some fresh, chopped basil (Thanks Farmers' market!)
Reduce some balsamic vinegar and drizzle on top.
I made the salad for a ladies' Bible study and kept it in the fridge for a few hours.
It was gobbled down and the sparse leftover that made it home didn't last the night.
A nameless crazy hungry lady went downstairs at 10pm and ate the rest in bed so unfortunately I can't tell you how long it will stay fresh.
But you may not have to be concerned with storing it for more than a few hours if you have taste buds like mine.
I mean like that crazy lady.
And I have to confess, my hottie toddie taste-tester didn't even get one bite due to the voracious appetites of the Bible study ladies and that one crazy lady. But I think it would be given a 5*****!
Your faithfully, silly, savory-searching friend, Aly!
