Another I will have to remember when summer comes round again.
Oh my! That looks fabulous! I love the combo of basil, mozzarella and tomato, but have never heard of peach with it. I have to try it~!
Oh, that does look good. I'm impatiently waiting for garden ripe tomatoes as no store bought ones can compete.
...a summer delight.
Gracias por la receta. Te mando un beso.
Delicious
Looks so colourful and appetizing!
A wonderful summer salad 💗
unsure about tomatoes but would love to make it with oranges and peaches, so clean and refreshing for summer!
Two fruits together - tomatoes and peaches, it sounds nice Jan.
Wonderful flowers, and this sounds like a great salad! Happy weekend!
I can imagine how fresh and juicy this tastes - delicious!
The salad look delicious, yum!
Take care, have a great weekend.

I may have to try this once I get some ripe tomatoes. I never thought of peaches with tomatoes, but a good peach and a good tomato can't be beat! Have a great weekend.
I never considered marrying peaches with tomatoes. Sounds different.
Love a moz and tomato salad but I have never put peaches on mine. Sounds like something I might try. I also, love making a tomato sandwich with moz cheese and then I throw on some basil. YUM
The salad is definitely great.
I put peaches in my salad,
they are amazing!!
Have a nice Sunday!
Wow
The salad looks very appetizing. Perfect for the heat.
Have a nice weekend:)
Looks delicious!
Peach in a salad, interesting idea. I must try it :-D
wow looks so good and perfect for hot day.
Oh yes, I would eat this.
I have heard of spinach with pears and orange with fennel, but not of peaches with mozzarella cheese. I will give it a try, as it seems perfect in Summer. In addition, I think that salad is a well balanced dish (carbs and protein). Thank you for sharing!
Another tasty looking meal.
My kind of salad!!
That looks so good!
Oooh, that sounds real yummy!
The salad looks very good. In the summer I always like to have any kind of salad.
I send you a Sunday evening greeting and wish you a happy new week.

Con el calor apetecen las ensaladas. Besos.
Hope you enjoyed a wonderful weekend!
I have never thought about adding peaches to my salads- but this looks delicious. Thanks for sparking a new idea! :)
A cool looking salad! Perfect and timely since peaches are in season this week. Enjoy your week.
I cannot imagine what this combination tastes like...it sounds like it would at least be something interesting.
My mouth is watering. I need to put mozzarella on my grocery list.
