The Melon and Watermelon Salad and the Salmon Avocado Salad are fantastic alternatives to today’s recipe that we absolutely recommend trying to bring new dishes to your table during the summer season. Now, let’s prepare this Bresaola and Peach Salad!

[Note about bresaola: Bresaola is an air-dried, salted beef made from top round, which has been aged two to three months until it becomes hard and dark red. It can be found in Italian specialty stores or high-end delicatessens. If unavailable, you can substitute with very thinly sliced prosciutto or lean roast beef, though the taste will be different.]
