There is still plenty of time to enjoy a seasonal summer salad before it gets cooler outside. This peach caprese salad is perfect to whip up for your Labor Day Weekend!

Ingredients:

8 ripe peaches
2 cups balsamic vinegar
2 cups fresh basil
12 oz fresh mozzarella, thinly sliced
3-6 oz prosciutto
maldon salt
fresh ground pepper
olive oil

Directions:

Pour balsamic vinegar into a small saucepan. Bring to a gentle boil over low heat. Heat until reduced to a thick glaze (it will take about 15 minutes). Turn off heat & let the reduction cool to room temperature.

Assemble the salad but cutting the peaches into thick slices and arranging on cutting board, alternating with mozzarella slices, basil leaves and a slice of prosciutto.

Drizzle the balsaic reduction over the salad, followed by a thing drizzle of olive oil. Sprinkle salt & pepper to finish. Enjoy!


Fast Five...Patient Highlight!

Picture
This week we are chatting with another one of our wonderful patients, Lisa Campanella!

How long have you been coming to Empire PT?
Many years: first for my hip back in 2017 and most recently after shoulder surgery.

What is your favorite part of coming here?
My fun conversations with my PT, Liz! When I went from 5 visits per week to 3, I missed seeing her everyday!

Not surprising-Liz is pretty great!
I also love that the atmosphere at Empire is relaxed and not overwhelming. Everyone receives one on one attention.

Lisa is making great progress at PT. When she is not here, she enjoys dining out and gives the BEST recommendations for wineries & local restaurants! Thanks Lisa!

Exercise of the Week: Straight Leg Raise
