  1. Make the vinaigrette by combining the olive oil, seasoned rice vinegar, red wine vinegar, minced garlic, sea salt & freshly cracked pepper, to taste, and a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes together in a small jar; seal with a lid and shake until well combined. Set aside until needed. Side Note: We like a tangy vinaigrette, if you don't, add more olive oil, to taste.
  2. Make the salad by combining the tomatoes, mozzarella cheese balls, red onion, fresh basil, fresh parsley, and fresh chives in a bowl. Shake the vinaigrette well then drizzle some on the salad, to taste.
  3. Toss to coat evenly then season with freshly cracked pepper, to taste. Set aside for 10-15 minutes then toss to coat, serve, and enjoy.
