Can I make this salad ahead of time?

Yes, with a few tricks. Prep the cucumbers, peaches, and blueberries a day early. Whisk the vinaigrette and store it separately. Add the feta and basil right before serving to keep it fresh.

What’s a good vegan alternative to feta?

You can skip the feta or swap in vegan feta crumbles. Crumbled tofu with a touch of lemon juice and salt works too if you’re feeling DIY.

Can I use frozen blueberries or canned peaches?

You can — just thaw the berries and drain them well. For peaches, choose those canned in juice, not syrup. Drain and pat dry so they don’t make the salad soggy.

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, combine blueberries, peaches, cucumbers, and feta.

2. In a jar or cup, whisk lemon juice, Dijon, honey (or maple syrup), olive oil, basil, salt, and pepper.

3. Shake or whisk until fully blended.

4. Pour vinaigrette over the salad.

5. Toss gently to combine.

6. Taste and season as needed.

7. Garnish with extra basil and serve.

Notes

Use maple syrup and omit feta for a vegan version.

Add chickpeas to make it more filling.

Keeps 1–2 days in the fridge. Peaches soften and feta melts into dressing over time.

Use strawberries or blackberries if blueberries aren’t available.

Try goat cheese or ricotta salata instead of feta.
