Late Summer Burrata Cheese Board
Creamy fresh burrata pairs deliciously with heirloom tomatoes, fresh peaches, and juicy cherries. This is the perfect appetizer for a summer celebration or even a no cook dinner. Honestly, this is my ideal dinner when it’s too hot to cook. The burrata is so delicious spooned onto a toasted baguette slice then finished with a juicy heirloom tomato, fresh basil and a sprinkle of sea salt. Fresh peaches or cherries over a scoop of burrata drizzled with honey is an out of this world sweet summer treat!
