Garden tomatoes are still in season here in Minnesota. They are at the end of their season, but I am still enjoying every last bit of it with the classics like Ultimate BLTs or something a little different like these Fried Goat Cheese & Heirloom Tomato Toasts. You could do like my husband, and just eat the fresh garden tomatoes like an apple all by itself with a little salt and pepper. That isn’t my jam, but I do LOVE them in this Fresh Tomato Basil & Burrata Salad.

For this particular salad, I used some store-bought multi-colored cherry tomatoes, but garden tomatoes or heirloom tomatoes would both be great in this salad. I made this dish for a bachelorette party that I was responsible for the food at. I picked dishes that could be made ahead of time and packed up in a cooler for dinner at a later time. This included some Italian Beef, a cheese plate and a fresh fruit platter with some phallic chocolates. 🙂 You have to throw a little cheesiness into a bachelorette party no matter how hold you are!

I made far too much of this Fresh Tomato Basil & Burrata Salad for the party because I had so many beautiful tomatoes to use up. I enjoyed this for lunch the next few days, because lets be real, tomatoes in balsamic with fresh cheese is ALWAYS a good thing!

Fresh Tomato Basil & Burrata Salad is a healthy and delicious salad made with simple ingredients for a side dish that pairs well with just about everything!
