Refreshing Burrata Salad Recipe

Heading to a party? Hosting guests? Perhaps you just want a refreshing and balanced appetizer for a hot Summer day. This recipe fits the bill. Featuring fresh vegetables and herbs, a drizzle of tangy balsamic and the All-star? A fresh round of Burrata cheese.

What is Burrata cheese you might ask? Burrata is a soft Italian cheese formed into a ball. The outside shell is mozzarella, while the inside is a rich cream.
