I love fresh tomatoes, ask anyone in my family. It is about the only plant that I willing plant and weed. This summer I was introduced to a tomato, mozzarella and basil salad and just loved it. And I have seen it pop up all over the web, so here is my very simple version.
Need:
Tomatoes, best right of the vine.
Basil
Fresh mozzarella
Olive Oil
Balsamic Vinegar

I just cut everything up and then My Mom and I each made our own bites and dipped in Olive Oil and Balsamic Vinegar. I loved this because then I was able to save what we didn't eat for later. Without having it over marinate in the dipping sauce.!!
I just tried this at a picnic this week and it was delicious!! now i will have to make some with our own tomatoes. Thanks for shaing!
ReplyDeleteSound yummy. I never can find basil that looks that fresh.
ReplyDeletesave me some!!
ReplyDeleteWe do a similar salad that includes sliced cucumbers as well. Joy, basil is easy to grow, and so much better when you can walk out your door and pick it!
ReplyDeleteJoy, check out Safeway, that is where I got the Basil. Though Mom has now planted some.
