Cucumber, Tomato, Mozzarella Salad with Balsamic
Description
The Cucumber, Tomato, Mozzarella Salad with Balsamic blends sliced Persian cucumbers, halved cherry tomatoes, and bocconcini mozzarella into a vibrant mix. A dressing of balsamic vinegar and olive oil is whisked together and drizzled over the vegetable and cheese mixture. Sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper season to taste.
The fresh cucumbers provide a crisp texture that contrasts with the juicy burst of cherry tomatoes and the creamy softness of the mozzarella. The balsamic vinegar brings a subtle acidity and sweetness, while olive oil adds smoothness and helps meld the flavors together.
