Tomato Basil Salad — TOMATO BASIL SALAD WITH MOZZARELLA

It doesn’t get simpler than this salad, leave out the cheese if serving with a meat meal, keep it in and make it a light lunch with some crusty bread. Summer tomatoes don’t need much to make them shine.

Always make sure to use a great quality extra virgin olive oil, we love Colavita.
