Ingredients
 

  • 1 package Carando Abruzzese Fresh Italian Style Meatballs
  • 4 cups cherry tomatoes (halved)
  • 2 Tablespoons olive oil
  • Kosher salt and pepper
  • 2 pinches sugar
  • 1/2 loaf Italian or French bread (sliced)
  • 2 Tablespoons butter (melted)
  • 2 Tablespoons olive oil
  • 8 ounces burrata
  • Fresh basil (torn)
  • Balsamic reduction (for serving)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Line two baking sheets with foil.
  • Toss the tomatoes with the olive, salt, pepper, and sugar. Spread on one of the baking sheets. Nestle the Carando Abruzzese Fresh Italian Style Meatballs in the tomato mixture.
  • Stir together the melted butter and olive oil. Brush on both sides of the bread, then spread the bread slices in a single layer on the second sheet pan.
  • Place both sheet pans in the oven and set the timer for 8 minutes. After 8 minutes, take both pans out and flip the meatballs and the slices of bread. Place back in the oven for another 8-12 minutes, or until bread is crispy and golden and meatballs are heated through.
  • To serve, pile the meatballs and tomatoes on a plate. Slice the burrata and place dollops of the cheese throughout the meatball mixture. Top with fresh torn basil, drizzle with balsamic vinegar, and serve with the crostini.

Notes

  • I like to pile the warm tomatoes and meatballs on a plate with the crostini on the side, then top it with big dollops of fresh burrata cheese.
