Tomato, Peach, & Halloumi Cheese Skewers

1.8K

The beauty in these skewers is the combination of flavors and textures. At the peak of their season, these cherry tomatoes and peaches don’t need much to pop: Literally toss them in some oil and place on skewers, alternating them with some chopped up halloumi cheese. I’ve drizzled some of my basil vinaigrette on here for a quick sauce, although these skewers can hold their own too.

Serve these as an app, side dish, or remove off the skewers and put in a salad (which is what I did a few days ago for lunch).

P.S. If you haven’t tried or seen halloumi… I’ve said it for the past year: it’s going to be the new burrata. I’m just waiting. It still hasn’t fully taken off yet, but I’ve seen it popping up more and more. This cheese is somewhat similar to mozzarella, but more firm and less watery, making it the perfect cheese to place directly on the grill or sear in a pan for a golden crispy coating.

It’s not the easiest to find, but if you can get your hands on it, try it out!
