Notes

Tip: This salad is best when it's made with very ripe peaches!
To Make Ahead - Place each salad ingredient in a separate container, chopped and prepped, and add an airtight lid. You can also make the balsamic vinaigrette ahead of time and keep it in a mason jar. Store in the refrigerator for 1-2 days or until ready to combine!
Storing Leftovers - If you have leftover salad that's already been combined, place it in an airtight container and store in the fridge for up to 3-4 hours.
