The
last time I went to visit my mother she made the most wonderful side salad. It
was ridiculously delicious. I must have had at least four helpings of it. As
someone who loves tomatoes, this salad was right up my alley and when she told
me it was really easy to make I knew I was going to be making this as soon as I
got home. Once again my mother was right. This balsamic tomato mozzarella salad
is super quick and easy to make and the flavor is soooo good!
What You Need:
4
Medium Tomatoes
4 oz
Fresh Mozzarella {I use BelGioioso}
1
Tablespoon Basil
4
Tablespoons Balsamic Vinegar {white}
1 Tablespoon
Olive Oil
1
Teaspoon kosher salt
1
Teaspoon fresh ground pepper
How to Make It:
Dice up
the tomatoes and place them in a bowl.
Slice
the mozzarella into bite size pieces.
Combine
the tomatoes, mozzarella, basil, balsamic vinegar, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Mix.
Refrigerate
for 30 minutes to chill before serving.
See! It
really is that easy to make. I made enough to keep me in balsamic tomato mozzarella
salad for the week {as my husband does not love tomatoes like I do I was not
required to share.}. This was a very simple side salad that kept well. I ate it
all week long and did not throw any out. The flavor is outstanding and since
this is healthy I can eat it by the bowl full completely guilt free! This has
quickly become a healthy lunch choice of mine and I encourage you to try it.
