Mother’s Day is this weekend and what better way to spoil your “Mom” than this gorgeous Grilled Halloumi & Peach Salad. This salad is incredibly fresh, easy to make and has the perfect combination of sweet from the peaches and salty from the halloumi cheese.

Halloumi cheese is a semi-hard, un-ripened, brined cheese that can be made from cow, sheep or goat’s milk. It is quite salty in taste. It can be eaten raw but tastes great when grilled or fried.

This is the ultimate summer salad! The lemon vinaigrette is super light and refreshing. Tossed with pecans, and fennel for added crunch. So whether you are celebrating your mother, wife, mother in law, fur baby mama this weekend and want a light and fulfilling lunch, this dish is for you!
