Salad:

4 thick slices good quality ciabatta or sourdough bread
Olive oil & salt to taste
3 peaches, sliced into wedges
2 ears of corn
5 oz lettuce of choice (we used baby kale & arugula mix)
1 cup sliced or diced cucumber
1 cup halved cherry tomatoes
1-1 1/2 cups fresh mozzarella pearls (ciliegine)
1/4 cup small or torn basil leaves

Vinaigrette:

1/2 cup olive oil
3 tbsp champagne vinegar
1 tbsp dijon mustard
3/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp garlic powder

Preheat grill to medium. Brush each slice of bread with olive oil (on both sides) and season with salt. Brush the peach slices with olive oil (to prevent sticking on the grill).

Place the bread slices, peach slices and corn on the grill. Grill the bread for 2-3 minutes per side, until charred and crispy. Grill peaches for a few mins on each side, until you have grill marks. Grill the corn for ~10 minutes.

Whisk together all ingredients for the vinaigrette.

Once the bread cools slightly, cut into 1” cubes. Cut the corn off the cob.

Assemble all of the salad ingredients on a large platter or in a bowl, and toss gently with the vinaigrette. Enjoy!
