Description
This tomato Mozzarella salad is a great twist on the Italian classic Caprese salad with toasted pine nuts. Tomato and mozzarella are always a great combination. The best part is this gets done in no time at all and can be kept in the fridge for days.
Ingredients
Salad
- 1 lb (500 g) Cheery tomatoes
- ½ lb (250 g) Mozzarella balls
- ½ cup (65 g) Pine nuts
- 10 leaves Basil
Dressing
- ¼ cup (60 ml) Olive oil
- 2 tbsp Vinegar
- 2 tbsp Honey
- ¼ tsp Salt
- ¼ tsp Pepper
Instructions
- Pine nuts - In a frying pan toast the pine nuts. I like to get little light brown spots on them,
- Tomatoes - remove stems, then wash and drained cherry tomatoes. Alternatively, cut, deseed, and dice two large tomatoes.
- Mozzarella - drain Mozzarella balls from water and set them aside. Alternatively, use a block of mozzarella. Cut into cubes and set aside.
Dressing
- In a mason jar - add all the dressing ingredients. Roughly tear two basil leaves and add them to the dressing.
- Close the lid and give the jar a good shake. Set aside until ready to use it.
Assemble
- To a salad bowl, add the tomatoes, Mozzarella, and toasted pine nuts. Roughly tear a few basil leaves and add them too.
- Pour the dressing over the salad and combine well.
- Cover with plastic wrap and let chill in the fridge for an hour or until ready to serve
