This refreshingly fruity salad is perfect for your next BBQ or potluck.
With creamy burrata cheese, fresh peach slices, sweet balsamic glaze and a taste of salty prosciutto, it really is the perfect summer bite.
Toasted bread (AKA croutons)
Today, we’re using one of my favorite brands of gluten free bread to make our own toasted croutons.
All you need is a splash of olive oil, a few slices of your favorite bread, and some salt and pepper. From there, it’s as easy as tossing the bread in a pan until they get nice and crisped up.
You can use them toasted in salads, on top of soups, or just eat them plain (no shame).
Tossed into this peach prosciutto arugula salad they are a dream.
Burrata cheese
If you’ve followed this blog a bit you may have picked up on some of my weird food addictions.
Balsamic glaze, anything with lemon juice or vinegar, and burrata cheese are just a few of the things I have to actively restrain myself from.
It’s just that good!
If you like fresh mozzarella cheese you will love burrata. It has the texture of fresh mozzarella on the outside, with a soft creamier consistency on the inside.
