Ingredients

  • 2 balls burrata (2 large or 4 small)
  • 2-3 tablespoon pesto
  • 1 small eggplant cubed and roasted
  • ¼ cup sundried tomatoes chopped
  • ¼ cup kalamata olives chopped
  • ¼ cup cucumbers chopped
  • 1-2 sprigs dill chopped
  • 1-2 teaspoon oregano flakes or freshly chopped
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • bread or pita chips for dipping

Instructions

For the eggplant:

  • Preheat oven to 450ºF and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Cut 1 small eggplant into large cubes, then toss in 1 tablespoon olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper.
  • Spread the eggplant onto the baking sheet and bake for about 20 minutes, then flip the eggplant and bake for another 10-15 minutes, until edges are golden brown.
  • Optional: Mash the eggplant slightly before putting it on the burrata board.

For the board:

  • Let burrata come to room temperature, then mash and spread it onto a serving board or dish.
  • Spoon the pesto evenly across the top of the burrata, then scatter the eggplant, sun-dried tomatoes, olives, and cucumbers over the board.
  • Sprinkle the dill, oregano, salt, and pepper over the burrata, then drizzle with olive oil before serving warm with toasted bread or pita chips.

Notes

  • Utilize mise en place! Make sure you have all of your ingredients prepped and ready before you begin making this recipe - it will help save you time and keep you organized.
  • Room temp is best. Be sure to let your burrata come to room temperature so it spreads easily onto your serving board - it will taste better with the other warm or room temp ingredients, too!
  • Use a fun pesto. There are so many unique pesto options out there to choose from - some are made with feta, some use bright herbs and greens like mint or arugula, some use sun-dried tomatoes - you can't go wrong!
  • Toppings galore. There are no shortage of mediterranean-focus toppings you can use here, either! From red onions and feta to capers or honey, try spicing up this board with even more fresh, vibrant ingredients from the region!
