Ingredients
  

4 ripe peaches, halved and pitted

8 slices of prosciutto

4 cups arugula or a mix of fresh salad greens

1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled

1/4 cup roasted pecans or walnuts, coarsely chopped

1/4 cup balsamic glaze

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste

Fresh mint leaves, for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Grill: Begin by preheating your grill to medium-high heat, aiming for approximately 400°F (this can vary depending on your specific grill).

    Prepare the Peaches: Lightly brush the cut sides of each peach half with olive oil. Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper over them for added flavor.

      Grill the Peaches: Place the peach halves cut-side down on the grill. Grill them for about 4-5 minutes, or until you see nice grill marks and the peaches feel warm and slightly tender. Once done, remove them from the grill and let them cool for a couple of minutes.

        Combine the Greens: In a large salad bowl, combine the arugula or mixed greens with the crumbled feta cheese and chopped roasted pecans. Toss gently to mix.

          Wrap the Peaches: Once the grilled peaches are cool enough to handle, carefully wrap each half with a slice of prosciutto. Place them atop the salad mixture in the bowl.

            Dress the Salad: Drizzle the balsamic glaze and the remaining extra-virgin olive oil over the salad. Gently toss all the ingredients to ensure that everything is evenly coated with the dressing.

              Garnish and Serve: Serve the salad immediately, garnished with fresh mint leaves for an extra touch of brightness and flavor. Enjoy this vibrant and delightful blend of tastes!
