Burrata for Life...Seriously

I have yet to meet someone who doesn't love fresh mozzarella....now, imagine your favorite mozzeralla has a much prettier, sexier, funnier, all around better cousin and her name is Burrata.  I don't know where burrata has been all my life but I've fallen in love.  Burrata is fresh mozzarella stuffed with more mozzarella and cream.  It is like eating a cloud of cheese.  It is perfect and it is now my life.  Ok, back to the recipe.  If you can combine summer and Atlanta, GA into a dish, here it is.  Grilled peaches, grilled bread, a few tomatoes, a light vinaigrette, one large bowl for tossing, sweet burrata and local GA honey, yes please!!!!

As always, you can watch the 3 minute video (I forgot the olive oil in the vinaigrette b/c I was sidetracked by my love of burrata) or click to print the recipe, or watch and read the recipe!
