Salad
- ½ 5oz package of arugula
- 6 large fresh strawberries, sliced
- 1-2 small fresh peaches, sliced * Any kind is fine
- 1 ball of burrata, torn into pieces
Basil Vinaigrette
- 2 cups fresh basil leaves
- 1 small shallot, peeled
- 1 small garlic clove
- ½ cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons distilled white vinegar
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
In a food processor, add the shallot and garlic. Process till finely chopped. Then add basil and the rest of the ingredients, pulsing till combined.
In a large bowl, add arugula and top with sliced strawberries and peaches. Tear the burrata into small-ish pieces and plop it on the top. Drizzle with basil vinaigrette and a little fresh cracked black pepper. Sea salt is also wonderful on top if you have it.
- Burrata can be expensive, so I recommend Trader Joe's for the best deal I've been able to find.
- Spinach can be substituted for arugula.
