Burrata and Tomato Salad

This salad is a fancy upgrade of the classic caprese salad. Burrata cheese is like mozzarella in taste and appears to look similar  until you cut into it. The center is soft and creamy and melts out onto the tomato salad. To make this salad look as good as it tastes, make sure to get multicolored tomatoes. Serves 6

Ingredients

3 large tomatoes, sliced (I get different colored tomatoes from the farmer's market)

1 ball Burrata* 

10 basil leaves, torn

5 heart of palms, chopped

1 tsp dijon mustard

1 tsp olive oil

salt and pepper to taste

*Burrata can be hard to find at local grocery stores

Trader Joe's has it consistently

Arrange cheese in the center of a large plate

Circle the cheese with tomatoes, making two layers if needed

Sprinkle with heart of palms and basil

Whisk together mustard, oil, salt, and pepper

Drizzle over salad

Enjoy! Feel free to mix up salad before serving

Serve with toasted garlic bread or as is
