Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beets

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wrap the heirloom beets in aluminum foil and roast them in the oven for about 45-60 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork. Allow them to cool, then peel and slice them.

  2. 2

    Slice the Avocado

    While the beets are roasting, cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh out. Slice the avocado into thin wedges.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Dish

    On a serving platter, arrange the sliced beets and avocado. Tear the burrata into pieces and place it on top. Scatter fresh basil leaves over the top.

  4. 4

    Drizzle and Season

    Drizzle the extra virgin olive oil and aged balsamic vinegar over the assembled dish. Sprinkle sea salt to taste.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve immediately as a refreshing salad or appetizer.
