This Peach Avocado Salad is the epitome of summer, featuring crisp peppery arugula, creamy avocado, sweet peaches, and bursts of flavorful basil. Not only is it refreshing and vibrant, but it is also stunning to look at.

Notes

This recipe was tested using Diamond Crystal coarse kosher salt. If you useĀ  Morton's kosher salt or fine salt decrease by about half for volume, or use the same amount by weight.

The peach can easily be swapped for nectarines.
