Salad Elements

The ingredient checklist is tremendous easy!

• Strawberries
• Blueberries
• Blackberries
• Raspberries
• Contemporary mozzarella balls
• Basil
• Olive oil

Be sure you begin with probably the most lovely and ripe berries since they’re the star of the salad. I don’t advocate frozen berries for this recipe.

Contemporary mozzarella cheese can be greatest. I like to make use of the small recent mozzarella balls which might be in water. They’re the right dimension for this salad. You may hold the mozzarella balls complete or reduce them in half, both manner works effectively. In the event you can’t discover them, you need to use common recent mozzarella, simply reduce it into chunk dimension items.

• Be sure you GENTLY stir the salad, you don’t wish to break up the berries.

See how simple that was? This twist on the traditional caprese salad is assured to be a summer time salad favourite! Make it for all your summer time BBQ’s, potlucks, picnics, and events! It’s the excellent pink, white, and blue salad for the summer time holidays too!
