Weeknight Mozzarella and Tomato Salad



My sons love mozzarella and tomato salad. This version has it tossed with baby romaine for an added crunch. I even slip in some thinly sliced red onion for a little extra flavor. Of course, it's delicious and goes great with any meat. It takes minutes to prepare and is so good, which means it's one of my favorites.


Ingredients for Weeknight Mozzarella and Tomato Salad:


2 heads of baby romaine, sliced

1 1/2 cups grape tomatoes, halved

1 container Cilegine, small mozzarella balls

1 1/2 cups grape tomatoes, halved

1/4 red onion, thinly sliced

a small handful of fresh basil

extra virgin olive oil

balsamic vinegar

kosher salt

black pepper


Time-Saving Tip: The salad can be prepared in advance, covered with plastic wrap, and refrigerated. Bring to room temperature before serving.


Let's see what we need.

We're ready to cook.



Slice the lettuce and transfer to a serving bowl. Add the mozzarella, tomatoes and sliced onion; garnish with all of the fresh basil.


Now season with salt and pepper and toss with some extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Watch how I do it.


It's ready! This salad is always delicious and loved by everyone. The Cilegines are soft and yummy that it's hard to stop eating them.


Enjoy!
