Step-by-Step Instructions
First things first, I love starting with the freshest ingredients I can find, especially the tomatoes and basil. Begin by washing your cherry or grape tomatoes and slicing them in half. In a bowl, combine the halved tomatoes, mozzarella balls, chopped basil leaves, balsamic vinegar, olive oil, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Toss everything together gently, making sure to coat the mozzarella and tomatoes in the dressing. The aroma of the fresh basil and balsamic is just heavenly!
