Salad Base

Burrata and Dressing

Method

Preparing the Salad Base

  1. 1

    Prepare the Arugula

    In a large bowl, add 4 cups of fresh arugula. Make sure to wash and dry the arugula thoroughly before adding to the bowl.

  2. 2

    Add Roasted Red Bell Peppers

    Slice the roasted red bell peppers into strips and add 2 cups to the bowl with arugula. You can use store-bought roasted peppers or roast your own by charring them until the skin is blistered, then peel and slice.

Making the Dressing

  1. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar, 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, 1 teaspoon of honey, 1 teaspoon of salt, and black pepper to taste until well combined.

Assembling the Salad

  1. 4

    Add Dressing to Salad

    Drizzle the prepared balsamic vinaigrette over the arugula and roasted red peppers. Toss gently to combine and ensure that the greens are evenly coated.

  2. 5

    Top with Burrata

    Tear the burrata cheese into large pieces and place them on top of the salad. Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
