I know we’re all really excited for fall, but I’m not ready to be done with my summer peaches! This chopped peach caprese salad is summer in bowl, and I will happily keep eating it as long as I can find peaches!
Like most of my salads, this one comes together as easily as chopping and throwing everything in a bowl. Really, you won’t even need to whip up a special dressing for this salad. We cheat a little with some balsamic vinegar and store-bought pesto, easy and perfect.
How to Make Peach Chopped Caprese Salad
You’ll Need:
- Cucumber, chopped (265 g)
- Cherry tomatoes, halved (150 g)
- Peach, chopped (200 g)
- Mozzarella, chopped (84 g)
- Red onion, diced (80 g)
- Store bought pesto (15 g)*
- White balsamic vinegar (15 g–ideally a fruit infused like my favorite lemon or peach by Baker and Olive)
- Handful of fresh basil, chopped (15-20 g)
- Good pinch of kosher salt and pepper to taste
Just add all of the ingredients to a salad bowl. Give it a good toss and serve immediately! You can add extra vinegar to taste if you’d like. Or, if you’re not worried about the fats, add another tablespoon of pesto or a tablespoon of olive oil!
How to serve your chopped peach caprese salad:
This salad makes a beautiful side to any grilled chicken, steak, burgers, or fish! I love to toss my portion with grilled chicken and arugula to bulk it up into a huge dinner salad. Add some extra vinegar or balsamic glaze to finish!
As I mentioned, I love adding a fruit infused white balsamic vinegar to this recipe! Baker and Olive ships anywhere in the United States and is so worth it! Less than 20 bucks for countless leveled up salads. For me, these beat any bottled dressing there ever was. From what I’ve found, they’re all 3 carbs per tablespoon, no added sugar… they taste sweet and natural and AMAZING. I’m in. You can find the links for both the Lemon and the Peach White Balsamic Vinegar below, or see if you have a local olive oil shop near you!

This is the first recipe of yours I tried. I made it one night for date night and it was a total hit. We added shrimp to it. I ended up making it three times that weekend. It really is so delicious, light, and filling.
Love this new spin on the classic Caprese salad. So perfect for summer- or anytime.
Another great recipe….this was delicious! I made it without the pesto bc I didn’t have any and it was still great!
