  • In a large bowl, combine the blanched asparagus and halved cherry tomatoes.
  • Drizzle the dressing over the vegetables and toss gently to combine.

4. Add the burrata:

  • Carefully place the burrata on top of the salad. You can tear it into chunks to make it easier to serve or leave it whole for a beautiful presentation.

5. Garnish and serve:

  • Garnish with fresh basil or parsley, and drizzle a little extra olive oil over the top. Optionally, you can add a drizzle of balsamic glaze for extra flavor.
  • Serve immediately as a refreshing side dish or light main course.

Tips:

  • Make it ahead: You can blanch the asparagus and prepare the dressing in advance. Just assemble the salad right before serving to keep the burrata fresh and creamy.
  • Add nuts: For added texture, sprinkle some toasted pine nuts, almonds, or walnuts on top of the salad.
  • Use other cheeses: If you can’t find burrata, you can use fresh mozzarella or goat cheese for a similar creamy texture.
  • Spice it up: Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the dressing for a bit of heat.

Asparagus Tomato Salad with Burrata Cheese is a vibrant, flavorful dish that’s perfect for warmer months or whenever you want to enjoy a light and satisfying salad. The creamy burrata cheese adds richness to the fresh vegetables, making it a truly delightful dish. Enjoy!
