Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Cut the peaches in half and remove the pits. Brush the cut sides with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Place the peaches cut-side down on the grill. Grill for 3-4 minutes until they have grill marks and are slightly softened. Remove from the grill and let cool.
While the peaches are cooling, thinly slice the red onion and halve the avocado, removing the pit and scooping out the flesh. Slice the avocado into wedges.
In a small mixing bowl, combine the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, fresh lemon juice, sea salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until emulsified.
On a serving platter, spread out the mixed salad greens. Dice the grilled peaches and scatter them over the greens.
Top the salad with sliced red onion, avocado wedges, and toasted pecans.
Drizzle the vinaigrette over the salad just before serving. Toss gently to combine.
Serve immediately and enjoy this refreshing, savory, and sweet peach salad.
