Stone Fruit, Burrata & Prosciutto Salad

Stone Fruit, Burrata & Prosciutto Salad with Creamy Balsamic Dressing

Stone Fruit, Burrata & Prosciutto Salad with Creamy Balsamic Dressing

I am in LOVE with this summer salad – stone fruit, burrata & prosciutto salad with a creamy balsamic dressing! Assorted stone fruit – like peaches, nectarines and plums are tossed with greens, burrata, prosciutto and fresh picked basil with a creamy balsamic dressing.

This is a no cook meal/dish/appetizer that is just heaven! (especially for hot days ahead!) This dressing is one of my go-to’s that is quick and SO so good.

This dressing is inspired by my Uncle Ira – in our family, we call this creamy balsamic the “good dressing”. We pretty much can have it by the spoonful. This balsamic dressing recipe is inspired by his famous version!

Ingredients You Need For Your Salad

For The Salad

  • peaches
  • plums

You can use any summer fruit/stone fruit on hand and available to you, if you need to swap out peaches, for example, this would be just as delicious! Other fruit additions that can work could be any type of pluot and apricots as well. (Cherries would be wonderful here as well!)

If you’d like to make this recipe vegetarian, omit the prosciutto!
