Heirloom Tomatoes and Burrata Salad

My family's Napa Valley vacation was filled with daily trips to local farmers markets.   The wide variety of tomatoes, cucumbers and basil were stunning.  The combinations were endless, and the seasonal options made our salad taste surprisingly different each day. 

Sliced tomatoes ranging form vibrant yellow to variegated tones filled our salad bowl.   A variety of cucumbers which, included lemon cucumbers, were added to the mix.  

 Thinly sliced red onions and basil leaves added color and flavor to our salad.

All of the chopped ingredients were tossed in olive oil until well coated.  

The tomato salad was arranged in a serving dish.  We then spread burrata cheese in the center with a sprinkle of salt and pepper.  After a quick drizzle of olive oil and balsamic vinegar, our colorful salad was ready to serve.
