Hello friends! If you’ve been following the blog recently, you’ve probably noticed that I’ve been taking full advantage of some of the beautiful summer produce out there (see last week’s peach, avocado and heirloom tomato salad and this quinoa salad !), and this week is no exception.
After grabbing some produce at the Farmer’s Market, I recently stopped by one of my favorite markets in LA, Bay Cities, to pick up fresh bread and burrata cheese for a lunchtime bruschetta bar. They bake homemade ciabatta bread every afternoon and have some of the best selections of imported cheese and meats in the city–so good that my Greek grandmother used to go there back in the day for her ingredients! It’s quick and easy to assemble, and a great option for entertaining since everyone can make their own bruschetta combination 🙂
Here are my top three combinations:
1. Sweet: Ciabatta, burrata cheese, sweet yellow peaches, basil, mint, olive oil
2. Savory: Ciabatta, burratta cheese, prosciutto, pesto, olive oil
3. Classic: Ciabatta, burratta, sliced tomatoes, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, finely chopped basil
