INGREDIENT NOTES:

WHOLE-WHEAT BREAD:

  • Utilize the whole-wheat bread to prepare the sandwich, and it will provide a hearty texture & more fiber. It will also make the sandwich more filling while keeping it lighter. We would also utilize the whole-grain sandwich thins or light bread instead if required.

BURRATA CHEESE:

  • Include the burrata cheese to provide a smooth & creamy texture to the sandwich. It will also provide a rich milky taste to balance the sweetness & tanginess of the roasted tomatoes. We would also utilize the light fresh mozzarella or reduced-fat mozzarella instead if required.

CHERRY TOMATOES:

  • Add the cherry tomatoes to prepare the sandwich filling. They will provide natural sweetness, juiciness & a fresh tomato flavor. Roasting them will also make them soft & enhance their natural sweetness. We would also utilize the grape tomatoes or chopped Roma tomatoes instead if required.

OLIVE OIL:

  • Utilize the olive oil to roast the tomatoes, and it will provide a delicious flavor. It will also help the tomatoes soften & develop a lightly caramelized texture. We would also utilize the cooking spray instead if required.
