Caprese Salmon with Burrata

Caprese Salmon V2

So hopefully summer is in full effect wherever you are.  During the summer months, I often feel like I’m going to give Jeremy Piven a run for his money in the mercury poisoning department.  I just CAN’T STOP with the seafood for dinner on these hot nights.  And when you add the light and bright ingredients of tomato, basil and burrata it’s game over.

This dish is really just a way for me to make another version of my favorite salad, but it’s like a great article of clothing.  If you love it, buy it in every color.  Kind of like I did with Express’s editor pants in college.  Literally… every. single. color.
