Make the dressing: In a small bowl or jar, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper until emulsified.

Prepare salad components: Wash and dry greens. Slice peaches, thinly slice onion, and toast nuts if desired.

Assemble salad: In a large salad bowl or platter, layer greens, peach slices, blueberries, goat cheese, nuts, and onion.

Dress and serve: Drizzle with the dressing, toss gently, and serve immediately.

Nut swap: Try almonds or pistachios instead of pecans/walnuts.

Cheese options: Blue cheese crumbles add a sharper flavor.

Meal prep tip: Keep dressing separate until serving to avoid soggy greens.

Extra sweetness: Add sliced strawberries for more fruit flavor.
