Prep Time 30 minutes

Cuisine Mediterranean
Servings 6 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 2 large green heirloom tomatoes, organic
  • 2 large yellow heirloom tomatoes, organic
  • 4 red tomatoes, organic
  • 1 shallot, chopped fine
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, good quality, extra virgin
  • 1/2 lemon, juiced
  • 2 cups burrata cheese good quality, two large balls
  • 2 tablespoons basil leaves, chopped finely
  • 1 tablespoon Italian parsley, chopped finely
  • Salt and pepper

Instructions
 

  • Slice the tomatoes and put them in a serving platter.
  • Sprinkle the chopped shallots over the tomatoes.
  • Sprinkle a liberal amount of salt on the tomatoes (this allows the juice of the tomatoes to come out and create a wonderful dressing).
  • Pour the olive oil and lemon juice over the tomatoes.
  • Let the tomatoes sit for at least two hours - put them in the fridge for the last 20 minutes so that they are cold when you serve them.
  • Just before serving sprinkle the salad with large pieces of burrata cheese, chopped basil, chopped parsley and pepper to taste.
  • Serve!
