Recipe preparation for Green Goddess Burrata Toast

How to Make Green Goddess Burrata Toast

Prep Your Base: Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). Slice your sourdough bread into thick pieces—thickness is key here—and arrange them on a baking sheet.

Toast It Up: Drizzle each slice with olive oil and sprinkle lightly with salt. Bake in the oven for about 10-12 minutes or until golden brown and crispy—watch closely so they don’t burn.

Create Your Dressing: In a food processor, combine fresh herbs, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth; the aroma will be heavenly!

Assemble Your Toasts: Once your bread is toasted and crispy, gently tear open the burrata and place it generously on top of each slice.

Add That Green Magic: Drizzle your homemade green goddess dressing over each piece of burrata. Don’t hold back—a little extra dressing never hurt anyone!

Serve & Enjoy!: Garnish with additional herbs or even some cherry tomatoes if you’re feeling fancy. Dig in while it’s warm—the gooey burrata paired with that zesty dressing is simply irresistible!
