This is one of my favorite any time meals whether it be breakfast, lunch or for a midday snack. Super quick and easy to make, minimal mess, vegetarian and actually quite filling! Here’s what you’ll need:
Avocado Burrata Toast
Ingredients
- Sourdough Bread (or your preference of bread)
- 1/2 of an Avocado
- Tomato to slice (I prefer Heirloom but again to your preference)
- Burrata Cheese ( I use Distefano’s, the best, freshest, straight up restaurant style burrata I’ve found yet)
- Olive Oil
- Balsamic Glaze
- Lemon
- Salt
- Pepper
- Basil (Optional)
- Chili Flakes (Optional)
Directions
- First, you’ll want to put your bread in the toaster and toast to your liking. While the bread is toasting half your avocado, remove the pit and slice into thin slices.
- Once out of the toaster lay your toast on to the plate and lay avocado slices along the bread so that it’s covered. Here I like to drizzle a little bit of lemon juice, olive oil and salt on the avocado. I use the back of a fork to apply a little pressure to mix the oil and lemon into the avocado. I personally don’t like to mash it like guacamole but that’s totally up to you if you do!
- Slice your tomato and lay the slices down to cover the avocado. I like to add a little salt and pepper to the tomato to liven it up.
- Now my favorite part, take a spoon and scoop out that glorious burrata and lay it right on top of those tomatoes. Too much is never enough for me.
- Next, drizzle the top with olive oil and balsamic glaze.
- Optional step: Take leaves of basil, I like to roll them up long ways (like a burrito) and take my knife to cut strips for garnish (plus it’s delicious) and sprinkle those on top.
- Serve with fork and knife and voila! Delicious anytime meal.
Let me know what you think if you choose to make it or how you’ve changed it to make it your own. I’m thinking possibly adding a layer of prosciutto between the avocado and tomato next time? Hope you try it out and enjoy!
