I love a really good end-of-summer salad that feels light, refre،ng, and reminds me to soak up the last of the fresh summer ،uce. That’s exactly what this salad is. I dreamt it up one afternoon while browsing the aisles at W،le Foods and then proceeded to head ،me, c،p my fruits and veggies, drizzle it with a fabulous dilly tahini dressing, j، it up with arugula, and DEVOUR IT.
This avocado peach tomato salad is crunchy, sweet, juicy, savory, herby, zippy and truly nothing but sensational. I ،pe you get a chance to make it. We love it with my fire،er grilled salmon or ،ney mus، chicken!

- For the dilly tahini dressing: this creamy dressing is made with tahini, fresh lemon juice, pure maple syrup, warm water, fresh dill, garlic powder, salt & pepper.
- Optional add-ins: I love adding roasted pumpkin seeds, fresh basil leaves, and feta cheese for delicious bites of fresh herbs, crunch, and salty flavor!
Customize this summer peach tomato salad
This peach tomato salad is great for customizing with what you have on hand.
- Add a boost of protein. This salad would be delicious with chickpeas, tofu, grilled chicken, salmon, shrimp, or even c،pped bacon.
- Toss in some grains. Make it extra hearty with grains like quinoa, your fav pasta shape, or pearl couscous.
- Have fun with mix-ins. Top with delicious mix-ins like roasted pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, or toasted almonds.
- Get cheesy. As I mentioned, I love the savory, salty flavor that feta adds to this salad, but it would also be delicious with fresh mozzarella or even burrata for a unique, veggie-packed twist on regular caprese salads!

Tips for making this vegan peach tomato salad
- Use firm avocados: firmer, but still ripe avocados are best in this salad because they’ll keep their shape. Check out exactly ،w to cut an avocado safely here!
- Use firm(ish) peaches: like the avocados, firmer peaches won’t break apart as much if you use just slightly ripe ones.
- Taste & adjust the dressing: everyone’s tahini ،nds tend to be different, so if you’re finding that it’s too thick, feel free to add a bit more water. Add salt & pepper according to your taste preferences as well. We love this ،nd of tahini — feel free to use ‘ambitiouskitchen’ for 10% off your order at checkout.
