Bocconcini and Cherry Tomato Salad

Bocconcini are fresh mozzarella balls that come in various sizes, packed in water.

This is a delicious fresh tasting salad that can be served as an appetizer or a side dish. For added kick, you can toss in some black olives or diced cucumber.


Ingredients

10 oz cherry tomatoes
10 oz small (mini) bocconcini
1/2 cup fresh basil leaves
1 garlic clove, minced
2 tbsp. balsamic vinegar
3 tsbp. olive oil
1/2 tsp. black pepper
1/2 tsp. sea salt

Directions

Slice half of the cherry tomatoes in halves (this allows juices to mix in with the vinegar and oil, for better flavor). Using a garlic twist, mince garlic and combine all ingredients, toss and let sit for 20 minutes before serving.
