Share:
Ingredients
- 2 Cups baby arugula
- 1 medium tomato slices
- 4 oz fresh mozzarella slices
- 10 fresh basil leaves
- 4 Tbs balsamic vinegar
- 4 Tbs olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste.
Instructions
- Arrange Arugula in a bed on the plate
- Arrange the tomato to alternate with the mozzarella on the plate
- Sprinkle with salt and pepper
- sprinkle the basil chifonade onto the tomato/mozzarella
- Add other basil leaves
- Drizzle the salad with olive oil and balsamic vinegar.
Notes
- Choose Arugula leaves that are smaller and brightly colored. Avoid wilted or brown leaves.
- Whisk the olive oil and balsamic together like crazy to make an emulsion. You'll see the two ingredients come together and make a thicker, opaque dressing. Use immediately.
- Try some various herbs and spices to find the flavor profile you enjoy best! Kosher salt and black cracked pepper are always nice!
