hierloom tomato toast with burrata
An heirloom tomato is a type of tomato that has been grown for at least 50 years in a family or community and was introduced before 1940.
Alone, heirloom tomatoes are delicious but I like to enjoy them on toast for a mid-day snack. Other times, I enjoy them with breakfast in the morning with some soft scrambled eggs.
For this recipe it’s simple, slices of heirloom on top of creamy silky burrata, then top it off with some high-quality olive oil. You likely have the ingredients for this recipe, and if not, you'll probably want to get them for future use.
