- 1/2 pound red grape or cherry tomatoes, halved (2 cups)
- 1/2 pound yellow grape or cherry tomatoes, halved (2 cups)
- 2 avocados , diced
- 8 ounces small fresh mozzarella cheese balls
- 1/2 cup fresh basil , chopped
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
- 3 tablespoons honey , warmed
- salt to taste
- In a large bowl, combine all salad ingredients, except Mozzarella cheese balls. That is, combine halved red and yellow grape or cherry tomatoes, diced avocado, chopped basil.
- In a small bowl, combine all dressing ingredients: whisk olive oil, balsamic vinegar and honey until nice and smooth.
- Add the salad dressing to the large bowl with salad, sprinkle with a small amount of salt, and toss to combine. Taste and season with more salt, if needed. Add Mozzarella cheese balls on top only at this point - so that they don't brown from the dressing.
Fabulous recipe! The addition of the honey gives the dressing a nice flavor!!
