We had friends over for dinner last night and I wanted to share with them one of our favorite things we’ve been eating this summer.
This was not your regular old fruit salad, this one was epic!
Since we have been eating clean, I’ve learned to cut up fruit beautifully and appreciate gorgeous seasonal eating.
We’ve eaten more fruit this year than ever before. One of our guests, Lee, commented that this was the most fruit he’d eaten in one sitting.
On the fruit platter, there were peaches, nectarines, cherries, plums, white flesh peaches, prosciutto and melon, chiffonade basil leaves, and burrata cheese drizzled with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
They loved it as much as we did. No, you don’t have to cut your fruit beautifully like I did; that’s just me, and I love doing it—it’s my zen.
It doesn’t matter what your kitchen skill set is; your platter can look like a total mess but will still taste delicious.
If this whets your appetite, run out and get some seasonal fruit and a container of burrata cheese at the grocery store.
Remember the olive oil, salt, and pepper—it’s what makes the dish go from a fruit platter to epic!
As I write this, we are having tea and coffee on the front porch and enjoying a thunderstorm.
Nelly is snuggled on my lap. Living in the moment doesn’t get better than this.
Happy Sunday my friends. 💗
* Yes, the title was a song from the Wiggles.🤣
I love these storms. The smell of fresh earth is just so beautiful and peaceful.
Looks and sounds delicious. Could you tell me more about that cheese? I love cheese but have never heard of it.
