Ingredients

▢ 8 ounces Burrata cheese 1-2 balls
▢ 12 ounces cherry or grape tomatoes
▢ 2 tablespoons olive oil
▢ 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
▢ 1 teaspoon minced garlic
▢ 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
▢ 1/4 teaspoon salt
▢ fresh basil optional

Instructions

Remove Burrata cheese from the refrigerator and allow it to come to room temperature.
Whisk olive oil, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, and salt together in a medium bowl. Stir in tomatoes. Set aside and allow to marinate while the oven preheats.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
Place the tomatoes with the marinade in a small baking dish or pie pan. Roast for 15-20 until the tomatoes soften and the juices overflow.
Remove from oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes before adding the Burrata cheese. Slice the cheese and garnish with fresh basil before serving with crostini, bread, or crackers. Enjoy!

Notes

Helpful Tips:

The tomatoes can be marinated up to 24 hours in advance in the refrigerator to help enhance the flavors.
The Burrata will be extra creamy if served at room temperature.
