    Peach Burrata Salad with honey mustard dressing ingredients and final salad.

    Summer Peach Burrata Salad is refreshing & tasty during the warm months. Serve this 20 minute salad during summer holidays, BBQ's, cookouts and birthday parties!

    Juicy summer peaches, creamy burrata, mint, basil, pistachios and arugula topped with honey mustard dressing is a summer staple and crowd favorite! The homemade dressing is key to the flavor.

    This summer salad is bursting with summer flavors, just like Spicy Watermelon Arugula Salad!

    I love making my own salad dressings. Two types of mustard plus honey, what's not to love? The vinegar tang of the mustard pairs so well with the sweet nectar of honey and I'm here for it! I also enjoy homemade vinaigrettes.

    The best part is you can make the dressing ahead of time, so it is ready and waiting for your peaches to ripen. This way as soon as they have that tell-tale "give" and sweet smell you can assemble the salad and enjoy. The same juicy "give" I wait for when making peach and mango salsa!

    • Summer Peach Burrata Salad

    Why You'll Love This Recipe

    • If you buy fruit by the case when you find a deal, I'm sure you need ways to use it up. This savory salad gives you a way to use peaches that isn't your standard fruit salad.
    • This honey mustard dressing keeps in the fridge for a week, so you can try it out on any greens or even use as dip for chicken.
    • Start your meal with a peach salad, and end it with a Peaches and Cream Pie, Peach Cobbler With Cake Mix, or Spicy Peach Galette.
    • You may even convert your "salad-dressing" lovers over to the mayo side with this combination of ingredients.

    Recipe Ingredients

    Arugula, fresh peaches, pistachios, burrata, salt, pepper, yellow mustard, Dijon mustard, mayo, honey, raspberries, mint and basil.

    Ingredient Notes

    • Burrata - Burrata can be found at most grocery stores near the fresh mozzarella. It is a round ball that has an outer shell of fresh mozz that's filled with fresh curd and thick cream.
    • Mustard - Mustard keeps for a long time in the fridge due to the vinegar, so it's a great condiment to have multiple types on hand for when you want to use them in this dressing!
    • Fresh fruit - Ensure your fruit is at the peak of ripeness so you have the best flavor!
    • Arugula - Select regular or baby here, whichever your store carries. Use leftover arugula in this Pear Arugula Salad!
    • Fresh herbs - Mint and basil leaves add to the summer-feel in this peach burrata salad! This is perfect if you have a backyard herb garden.
    • Pistachios - It is well worth the extra cost to buy already shelled nuts.
    • Honey - Wouldn't be honey-mustard without this! Use a local honey, like Local Hive Honey for an extra special feel. This is great to pick up at the farmer's market when buying the produce.

    For a full list of ingredients and measurements see recipe card below.

    Substitutions & Variations

    • Can't find raspberries? Blackberries are a great peach pairing. If they are exceptionally large I would recommend slicing in half before using. Dried cherries also work nicely here as they do in this shaved brussel sprout salad recipe too!
    • If you can't find burrata, mozzarella pearls will add that mozzarella taste but won't have that extra creamy addition.
    • Not a fan of arugula's peppery bite? Try a mixture of other baby greens.

    How To Make Summer Peach Burrata Salad

    Honey Mustard Dressing ingredients whisked together in a bowl.
    Peach Burrata Salad ingredients tossed together in a bowl, topped with honey mustard dressing.

    Step 1: Whisk dressing ingredients well to combine.

    Step 2: Layer salad ingredients before breaking burrata over the top. Add seasoning and dressing to serve.

    Expert Tips

    • Look for fun flavors of shelled pistachios at the store such as salt and pepper or even chili pepper. Not only will this add a great crunch but can change the profile of the entire salad.
    • Make your dressing ahead. I love to store in glass canning jars in the fridge because I can just shake things up and not dirty a whisk. I do this with my Mediterranean cucumber salad recipe too. This also allows you to have it on hand waiting for ripe fruit.
    • Peaches not ripe yet? Pop them in a brown lunch bag by themselves or add an apple. The gases as they ripen will speed up the process so you can enjoy this peach burrata salad sooner. I use this when making Peach Cobbler Pound Cake!

    Recipe FAQs

    What Is Burrata?

    This is a great version of fresh mozzarella, where a layer of mozzarella is basically "stuffed" with fresh curds and thick cream. It will really add to the presentation of your salad to have that on top! I highly recommend searching this out. You will look for more ways to use it once you have fallen in love with it.

    Can I Use Miracle Whip Instead Of Mayo In This Peach Burrata Salad?

    Sorry mayo-haters, I really suggest using it here because we are doctoring it up with honey and other flavors. The sweetness of miracle whip dressing will be too much to add honey too. Try making spicy mayo too for a shrimp rice bowl!

    Can I Make Peach Burrata Salad Ahead Of Time?

    With the burrata, fruit, and dressing, I do not recommend preparing peach burrata salad until it's time to serve. However, this will easily transport to a cookout if you do it in little packages. Assemble the greens and nuts in your salad bowl, then pack the fruit and dressing separately.

    How Do I Store Peach Burrata Salad?

    Store dressing in an airtight jar in the fridge for up to one week. I do not recommend saving leftovers of this salad as they will quickly get soggy due to the dressing. If you don't think you will eat it all at once, I suggest only dressing half of the greens.

    Equipment

    • 1 food processor
    • 1 sharp chef knife
    • 1 cutting board

    Ingredients
      

    Dressing

    • ¼ cup dijon mustard
    • ¼ cup + 1 tbsp yellow mustard
    • ¼ cup + 1 tbsp honey
    • ¼ cup mayo I use Hellman's
    • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt

    Peach Burrata Salad

    • 3 oz arugula
    • 2 peaches sliced
    • 8 oz burrata 1 ball = 4oz
    • 1 pint raspberries
    • ¼ oz basil whole leaves or torn
    • ¼ oz mint whole leaves
    • ½ cup pistachios roasted, salted
    • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
    • ¼ teaspoon black pepper course ground

    Instructions
     

    Making Dressing

    • Whisk dressing ingredients together in a small mixing bowl until well combined

    Making Salad

    • Layer salad ingredients, breaking burrata cheese halfway open for easier serving. Sprinkle salt and pepper over burrata and rest of salad. Top with dressing and serve

    Notes

    Make dressing up to 1 week in advance and store in fridge in an airtight container. Whisk dressing before serving.
    Remove burrata from liquid and let excess liquid drip off. Break burrata almost all the way in half right over the top of the salad then set down on top. This allows the creamy inside to show and makes it easier for portioning. 
    Dress salad right before serving.
