I just love this Blood Orange Salad with Burrata and Pesto recipe and I just had to share it with you all. Slices of beautiful, deep blood oranges on top of burrata cheese, which is one of my favorites and garnished with toasted pine nuts and fresh basil leaves. The pesto made from basil leaves, garlic, pine nuts, olive oil, Parmigiana and lemon juice, may just be what makes this salad everything that it is.
To make Blood Orange Salad with Burrata and Pesto, you will need the following ingredients:
On a serving plate, surround the sliced blood oranges with the giant, torn burrata cheese.
In a food processor, combine 2 cups of basil leaves, 2 cloves of minced garlic, 4 tablespoons of pine nuts and ½ cup of extra virgin olive oil.
Blend a few times until smooth.
Add ¼ cup of Parmesan cheese, the juice from ½ a lemon, and bit of sea salt to taste, then blend again.
Spoon the prepared basil pesto over the blood orange and burrata salad and sprinkle with toasted pine nuts.
Garnish with a few fresh basil leaves and drizzle remaining 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil. Serve and enjoy!
