- Tomatoes and peaches. For the heirloom tomatoes, wash them well and cut them into pieces similar to bread cubes.
- You don't need to peel the tomatoes, the skin will add a nice texture to the salad.
- As for the peaches, first, wash them and then cut the peaches into pieces the same size as the tomatoes and bread.
- Dressing. To make the vinaigrette, place the cup of basil, vinegar, olive oil, garlic clove, salt, and black pepper to taste in a blender.
- Once all your ingredients are ready, take a large bowl and add the tomatoes and salt them, then the peaches and bread.
- Finish with the dressing. Stir all ingredients in the bowl until well combined.
- Make sure each piece of bread is touching some of the fruit, this will help the flavors blend more effectively.
- Let stand for 5 to 15 minutes and serve immediately.
