Sabrina’s Burrata Salad Recipe
Burrata Salad is quite similar to Caprese Salad, but with some key differences. Like caprese, it’s made with fresh tomatoes, basil, and cheese. However, this recipe also includes salad greens, and uses burrata, instead of soft mozzarella. Burrata is a rich, creamy cheese, and tastes amazing in salad as it coats the other ingredients. This light dish can go along with heartier meals like Slow Cooker Beef Ragu, or you could pair it with simple and tasty recipes like Sun Dried Tomato Chicken Pasta.
