1 Place the lemon juice in a small bowl and add the onions, gently tossing them with your fingers to coat. Let them soak for 10 to 15 minutes, then drain and set aside. This will take some of the bite out of the onion.
2 In a small, dry skillet over medium heat, toast the pistachios, stirring frequently, for about 5 minutes until fragrant and lightly toasted. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
3 In a medium bowl, combine the peaches and honey until coated.
4 In a large bowl, whisk together the vinegar and olive oil. Add the mixed greens and basil, and toss them together with your clean hands.
5 Place the greens on individual plates or a large platter. Evenly distribute the peaches, goat cheese, tomatoes, pistachios, and red onions over the greens. Serve immediately. Did you love the recipe? Give us some stars and leave a comment below!
