Burrata is such a star ingredient and it will make any dish special. Burrata is a ball of mozzarella filled with creaminess and it’s my favorite type of cheese to add to summer dishes.
I absolutely love this summer burrata salad because it highlights those sweet and plump summer tomatoes. Pickled red onions add a touch of acidity and croutons add that crunch that we all love in salads.
