A beautiful summer tomato salad made with fresh basil, creamy burrata, garlicky breadcrumbs and a white balsamic vinaigrette.
INGREDIENTS
2 lbs of mixed tomatoes
4 ounces of cherry tomatoes
8 ounces of burrata (two, 4 ounce balls)
4 ounces of rustic white bread
3/4 cup plus 2 Tablespoons of olive oil
1/2 cup of white balsamic vinegar
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 medium shallot, thinly sliced
1/2 cup of basil, chopped or torn
salt & pepper to taste
INSTRUCTIONS
Slice the large tomatoes into even slices. Lay the slices on a paper towel and season with a pinch or two of salt. Let them sit for a half an hour.
Place the bread in a food processor and pulse until you have coarse crumbs.
Heat 2 Tablespoons of olive oil in a medium skillet.
Add the bread crumbs and stir until golden brown, about 5-8 minutes.
Push the bread crumbs to the side and add the garlic. Stir for about 30 seconds and then stir the garlic into the bread crumbs, remove from the heat and allow to cool.
Place the shallots in a large bowl. Add the vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon of salt and several turns of fresh cracked pepper. Whisk in the olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Layer the tomato slices, and cherry tomatoes on a serving plate. (Cut some of the cherry tomatoes in half and leave some whole)
Drizzle some of the vinaigrette over the tomatoes.
Cut each burrata ball into 4 pieces and place them on the tomatoes.
Sprinkle a few handfuls of breadcrumbs around the plate of tomatoes.
Toss the basil on top.
Drizzle a little more vinaigrette over the burrata.
Serve with remaining dressing and bread crumbs on the side.

Appreciate what you have.
Be thankful and stop complaining.
Live more, complain less.
Have more smiles, less stress.
