Ingredients:

  • 2 pints (500g) cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 8 oz (225g) bocconcini
  • 1/2 cup (15g) fresh basil leaves, torn
  • 1/4 cup (60ml) extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tbsp (30ml) balsamic glaze
  • 1 tsp (5ml) lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp (3g) sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp (1g) cracked black pepper

Instructions:

  1. Halve the cherry tomatoes lengthwise. Slice the mozzarella pearls in half if they are larger than the tomatoes. Tear the basil leaves by hand into small pieces.
  2. In a small jar or bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic glaze, lemon juice, salt, and pepper until the mixture is glossy and emulsified.
  3. Combine the tomatoes, mozzarella, and basil in a large bowl. Pour the dressing over the top and toss gently until evenly coated. Serve immediately.
