Roasted Tomato and Burrata Caprese Salad

Recipe Description

This Roasted Tomato and Burrata Caprese Salad is my take on the authentic Italian caprese salad. With my love for salads, I am always finding new ways to change the ingredients of dishes to keep the authenticity while not getting bored of the same combinations. In this salad, I roast cherry tomatoes with olive oil, garlic and salt and serve them with baby arugula, balls of burrata cheese, as an adaptation to fresh mozzarella balls, but you may use them too, if you prefer, balsamic vinegar and basil leaves.

To make Roasted Tomato and Burrata Caprese Salad, you will need the following ingredients:

Takes a while to make this salad but it's very good just not as fast as the Italian vinaigrette.
