This strawberry caprese salad is a fresh, vibrant dish that’s perfect for spring! Strawberries provide vitamin C and antioxidants, while burrata adds protein and calcium to help support healthy muscles and bones. Finished with fresh basil, pistachios and a drizzle of balsamic glaze, it’s a simple salad that’s full of flavour and perfect for entertaining in the sun or enjoying as a light meal!

Serves: 4

Ingredients:

• 500g Ashbern organic strawberries, halved
• 2 burrata balls
• 2 cups basil leaves, fresh
• 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• 2–3 tbsp It’s Olio balsamic glaze
• Flaky sea salt, to taste
• Fresh cracked black pepper, to taste
• 2 tbsp pistachios, roughly chopped

Method:

1. Arrange strawberries across a large serving platter in a loose, natural spread.
2. Place burrata balls on top, either whole or gently torn (I did one of each).
3. Tuck fresh basil leaves throughout the platter, layering some under and around the strawberries and burrata.
4. Drizzle generously with extra virgin olive oil. Spoon balsamic glaze over the top and season with flaky salt and cracked black pepper. Top with chopped pistachios and serve immediately.
