🍓 The Must-Try Summer Salad That’s Stealing the Show

🍓 The Must-Try Summer Salad That’s Stealing the Show

If you’re looking for the salad to put on repeat this summer, the one that’s just as beautiful as it is delicious — this is it. It’s sweet, savory, creamy, crunchy, and layered with all the flavors summer should taste like.

And it all comes together with one hero ingredient:
LeClarisse Extra Virgin Olive Oil.


Fresh, Simple, and Seriously Stunning

During a recent live event with LeClarisse (they joined in from Italy!), I promised I’d share one of my favorite ways to use their olive oil — and this salad couldn’t be a more perfect showcase.

It starts with spinach and/or arugula, adds creamy burrata, sweet strawberries, a drizzle of honey, a splash of balsamic glaze, and a generous drizzle of that smooth, peppery LeClarisse EVOO.

The result? Pure summer on a plate.


Summer Burrata & Strawberry Salad

You’ll need:

  • 2–3 cups baby spinach or arugula (or both!)
  • 1/2 - 1 ball of burrata cheese
  • Handful of fresh strawberries, sliced
  • Small handful of pistachios
  • Fresh basil leaves
  • Honey (about 1 tsp, drizzled)
  • Balsamic glaze, to drizzle
  • LeClarisse Extra Virgin Olive Oil, to finish
  • Pinch of salt + freshly cracked pepper

🥄 To Assemble:

  1. Layer spinach or arugula on a platter or in a shallow bowl.
  2. Tear the burrata gently and place on top.
  3. Add sliced strawberries and sprinkle with chopped pistachios.
  4. Scatter fresh basil over everything.
  5. Drizzle with honey, balsamic glaze, and a generous spoonful of LeClarisse olive oil.
  6. Finish with a pinch of flaky salt and cracked black pepper.

Serve immediately — it’s best when the burrata is at room temperature and the strawberries are juicy and fresh.


 Why LeClarisse Olive Oil Matters

The FDA recommends a tablespoon of olive oil a day for heart health, and when it tastes like LeClarisse, it’s a daily habit you’ll actually look forward to.

LeClarisse is cold-pressed in southern Italy from hand-harvested olives — no fillers, just bold, real flavor. It’s peppery, smooth, and elevates even the simplest dish into something special.  It the best olive oil for salads.  

This salad lets it shine — no cooking required.
