We recently took this Summer Fruit Caprese Salad Recipe to our friends’ house for dinner earlier this week.

Summer Fruit Salad

For this week, gather your favorite summer flavors, like berries and cherries and apricots and peaches.

Don’t forget the heirloom tomatoes.

And Oregon berries!

Always fresh basil.

And a good quality mozzarella cheese (I buy these Galbani Fresh Mozzarella marinated balls from Costco in a 40 ounce container).

I always think of “home” when I enjoy summer produce.

It was always a staple on our table in the summertime, deconstructed, sliced, and devoured.

This time, combine it all together for the best summer salad!

ENJOY!

Where to buy balsamic glaze? The cheapest way is to buy a pack of 6 (maybe share with a friends). We use it a LOT, so I’m happy to keep to many bottles on hand, plus I’ve given as “hostess gifts” many times. Because people say, where did you get the glaze? It’s so good!

    Delicious! There were no peaches at the grocery store, so I used a nectarine, which was wonderful! Easy Peasy and refreshing!

    Just delicious!

    Anyone ever add walnuts or would that be weird?

    • Sandy

      You could try it – sort of like a waldorf salad.

  4. VanessaReply

    Thanks for sharing! How far ahead of time can I make it?

    • Sandy

      You can make ahead, but don’t drizzle balsamic glaze until right before serving.

    I made it for my family, delicious, easy and refreshing.

    This looks absolutely divine. But left to myself I’d pick out all the berries and mozzarella and leave the rest for someone else. LOL! As hard as I try to like tomatoes and peaches, I just can’t seem to do it.
    HUGS!
