Ingredients

4 medium heirloom tomatoes (about 1 lb)
25 leaves fresh basil (approximately)
4.4 ounce burrata cheese ball (you may actually want 2 balls)*
flaky sea salt to taste (about 1/4 to 1/2 tsp)
freshly ground black pepper (about 1/8 tsp)
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 tbsp aged balsamic vinegar

Instructions

Slice the tomatoes about 1/4" thick and arrange on a serving platter.
Evenly sprinkle the fresh basil leaves over the tomatoes.
Slice the burrata into bite-sized pieces using a serrated knife. I usually cut a 4.4-ounce ball into 8 pieces.
Sprinkle the salt and pepper evenly over the top of the tomatoes and burrata, then drizzle on the extra virgin olive oil and aged balsamic vinegar.
Serve immediately, and enjoy!

Notes

*Sometimes I include two 4.4-ounce burrata cheese balls on my platter if I know I've got some major cheese lovers at my table. It's good to have backup. You can always add more!
