Note
  • If you prefer, you can use mozzarella cheese instead of burrata.
  • If you don't have balsamic dressing, you can make your own by mixing balsamic vinegar, olive oil, and a little bit of honey or maple syrup.
  • This salad is best served immediately after assembly, as the burrata cheese can become watery if it sits for too long.
