You must try this delicious Easter Bunnies Burrata Salad for the best Easter recipe.
Made with fresh, creamy burrata cheese and delightfully sweet grape tomatoes, this classic combination portraying a momma and baby Easter bunny is almost too cute to eat.
It’s the perfect make-ahead side dish to serve at Easter lunches and a healthy way to balance out the chocolate we all love.
Cover the salad with clingfilm and store it in the fridge if you make it in advance. Wait to drizzle with olive oil, balsamic glaze, flaky sea salt, and pepper till right before you’re ready to serve.
Feel free to add prosciutto, avocado, and pesto, or you could even toast some baguette slices till they are crispy for a flavorful appetizer.
