A quick and easy fresh burrata board featuring creamy burrata cheese paired with a vibrant assortment of crisp vegetables, perfect for entertaining or a light snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 fresh balls burrata cheese (about 8 ounces or 225 grams total)
  • 1 cup mini bell peppers, assorted colors, sliced
  • 1 cup radishes, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup snap peas, trimmed
  • 1 medium cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • A handful fresh basil leaves, torn
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • Flaky sea salt, to taste
  • Fresh cracked black pepper, to taste
  • Optional: A handful of toasted pine nuts or sliced almonds
  • Optional: A few olives

Instructions

  1. Wash all vegetables thoroughly. Slice mini bell peppers into thin strips, radishes into rounds, and cucumber into thin slices. Trim snap peas by snapping off the stringy edge.
  2. Take the burrata out of the fridge about 10 minutes before serving to let it come to room temperature. Gently pat it dry with a paper towel.
  3. Place burrata balls spaced nicely on your board or platter. Surround them with piles of prepared vegetables, grouping colors and textures for a beautiful presentation.
  4. Scatter torn fresh basil leaves around the board. If using nuts or olives, place them in small bowls or scatter lightly on the board.
  5. Drizzle extra virgin olive oil generously over the burrata and vegetables. Sprinkle flaky sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper on top.
  6. Serve immediately with crusty bread or crackers on the side for scooping.

Notes

Let burrata come to room temperature before serving for creamier texture. Slice vegetables thinly just before serving to keep them crisp. Drain burrata gently if watery to avoid soggy veggies. Use a gentle touch when handling burrata to preserve its creamy texture.
