Late Summer Peach, Burrata, and Prosciutto Salad
/While we're still in the heat of summer we're starting to anticipate the upcoming fall season. When it comes to food, recipes that are light and bright but also with substance are perfect during this seasonal transition. One thing we love at this time of year is a spread of fresh peaches, burrata, and prosciutto. Delish!
