Variations

I enjoy swapping arugula for spinach or adding cucumbers for extra freshness. For a more tangy flavor, I increase the balsamic glaze slightly.

storage/reheating

I store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 day. I try to keep the burrata separate when possible to maintain its texture.

Since this is a fresh salad, reheating is not needed. I always serve it chilled or at room temperature.Tomato, Peach, and Burrata Salad
