Peach Tomato Motz Salad

It is homegrown heaven at Eckert’s this week! The peach trees are loaded, the vines are dripping with blackberries and colors are popping by the dozens daily in the veggie patch! All this vibrant produce in combination with temperatures in the 80’s has me literally picking dinner every night!

Last night’s family dinner was divine. Platters full of Peach Tomato Motz, Farmer BKT fixin’s (bacon, kale and tomatoes), sweet corn on the cob, roasted summer squash and sliced peaches & blackberries decorated the counter. We enjoyed a pleasant evening on the patio overlooking the peach orchard. What a perfect summer dinner!

Peach Tomato Motz Salad Ingredients

My personal favorite of the night was Peach Tomato Motz which is a variation of a classic Tomato Caprese Salad. This version features two unlikely partners: tomatoes and peaches. It is hard to imagine but tomatoes and peaches are absolutely incredible together. Sweet peach flavors compliment the intensity of sun-ripened tomatoes. Give this simple salad a try and I am sure you will be craving it every day this summer just like me!
