I fried the goat cheese instead of crumbling it. It was crunchy on the outside and warm and velvety on the inside. I also used half the salad dressing. It was a big hit with my family.

A beautiful salad and delicious. I followed the recipe exactly with one exception: I cut down the olive oil to 3 TB as I like a more vinegary dressing. I ended up not using all the dressing. For those of you on Weight Watchers, this is 3-4 points, depending on how much olive oil you end up consuming. Here's a tip for peeling peaches and not wasting any of the precious fruit: immerse peaches in boiling water for 30 seconds. The peel comes right off.

Mango. Yum!

Used walnuts instead of pine nuts. Very good!
Philip
Made this for dinner 2 nights ago, subbing fresh cherries for the peaches. Waaaaay too much basil. I love basil, but it overpowered all the other ingredients. Next time, I might use a tablespoon per salad.

A divine summer salad. I used white balsamic vinegar which complemented the sweetness of the peach beautifully. Didn't need any extra goat cheese.

I made this with nectarines since my daughter doesn’t like peach fuzz. It was delicious. For me fruit, cheese and nuts always make for a great salad. Served with scallops as suggested. Lovely, elegant dinner that took just minutes to prepare.
Sharon
Love this salad - made it multiple times this summer. Usually used mixed greens or spinach with arugula rather than just arugula. Especially wonderful with great South Carolina peaches.
Kirk
My wife’s favorite salad, and I make many! I use Citrus Champagne Vinaigrette and add grilled chicken. And the fresh basil is KEY! My “go to” when I want to score husband points. :)
Heather
Honestly, even though my peaches were super ripe, they didn't add enough sweetness unless each and every bite had a piece of peach in it. Dressing needs a sweetener added - sugar, honey, something.
Susan
Perfect. Feel free to substitute whatever nuts you have on hand (pecans and walnuts both work nicely).
Carolyn
This was perfection with fresh from the local orchard Red Haven peaches!
Barbara Q
I made this with pomegranates and feta cheese, as I didn't have peaches or goat cheese. I didn't change anything else and it was fabulous.
Ariel
So simple, elegant and delicious. I added a bit of Dijon mustard and maple syrup to my dressing to give it a bit more body.
leah
Almond. Added half of the goat cheese to the dressing so it was creamy
Hannah
Delicious recipe! Added quinoa and chicken to make it a little more filling, will make again.
Liz Petersen
Excellent and easy salad! I subbed rice vinegar as I was out of champagne vinegar, and I added a sliced scallion. Very delicious.
Tim
This was great!

I substituted pecans for pine nuts because they’re slightly less expensive and I had them on hand. Didn’t use all the dressing. Used Thai basil, which I love, and I tore them instead of julienned. Easy to put together and a big hit at a potluck. Delicious, healthy, and easy: what more could you ask for?
Laura
Tried this with pears! Yummy. Used half the dressing, and will try with fresh lemon juice next time.

Made 8/22/23 for dinner at Rebecca and Tom’s for Scott F. Got rave reviews. Used peaches from farmers market.
Denver Fanta
Made as written. Added a whisper more salt. Super delicious and summery!
Tommy
To make this a meal, we added chickpeas and farro - delicious!
TXTJ
This is a gloriously simple & perfecto summer salad! Do yourself a favor & make it soon!
Carrie
I used candied pecans instead of pine nuts. I agree with another commenter that the dressing is not very sweet. Had I not used candied nuts, I would have added sweetener to the dressing. But as I made it, otherwise following the recipe, this salad was incredibly delicious!
SK
Overall a nice summer salad, and a good way to use up some peaches from our tree. Substituted sunflower seeds for pine nuts (since they’re so expensive). Needed a little more sweet and a little heat, so added hot honey to the dressing, which made it even better!

This is a perfect summer salad! I substituted nectarines and feta because that was what I had on hand and it was delicious! Served with grilled flank steak.
