Roasted Tomato and Burrata Rosemary Crostini Recipe

I just love a yummy Crostini! So many combinations, so little time! Crostini is one of my “Go-To’s” because of how easy it is to throw together, how versatile it can be and… let’s be honest… it is ALWAYS so beautiful to look at. It’s never too much and never too little, Crostini is simply…perfect. Whip it up for an appetizer, lunch with a side salad or even just a snack. I particularly love this recipe for all reasons haha. The Burrata Cheese is as creamy and light as can be, the Bread is so savory and flavorful, the Tomatoes add just the right amount of sweetness, as well as gorgeous color and the Rosemary –  a bright freshness to top it all off! Sip on a crisp Chardonnay or Pinot Grigio with this one. Cheers!
