I love good cheese and vegetable salad with a nice vinaigrette. The fresh cold salad is great for these increasingly hot days. I love that you can make them in advance and that they make great leftovers.
A Cheese and Tomato Salad
- 1 ball of fresh mozzarella cheese, cubed
- 1/2 vidalia onion, thinly sliced
- 1/4 yellow pepper, diced
- 1/4 green pepper, diced
- 1 small tomato, diced
- 1 tbsp fresh oregano, minced
- 1 tbsp fresh basil, minced
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 a lemon, juiced
- 1 garlic clove, microplaned
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Combine all the ingredients into a bowl. Mix well. Chill until serving time. It’s better if the flavors have time to meld. Serves 4.
Two of my favorite ingredients in one little dish. Yippee!
And it can be made in advance! Love recipes like this!
Sounds refreshing and tasty.
It is… maybe i will make it sometime when you come…
Looks tasty and so refreshing! I love mozzarella! What onion would you recommend in place of vidalia (I don’t recall seeing them at the store I go to)?
Any sweet onion would do… Thanks for stopping by!!!
