Ingredients:

  • 2 cups (300g) cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 8 oz (225g) fresh mozzarella pearls
  • ½ cup (15g) fresh basil leaves, torn into bite-sized pieces
  • 3 tbsp (45ml) extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 tbsp (30ml) balsamic glaze
  • ½ tsp (3g) sea salt
  • ¼ tsp (1g) cracked black pepper

Instructions:

  1. Place the halved cherry tomatoes and mozzarella pearls into the mixing bowl. Sprinkle with sea salt and let them sit for 2 minutes to draw out the natural juices.
  2. In a small separate container, whisk together the olive oil and balsamic glaze until the mixture is cohesive and glossy.
  3. Fold in the torn basil leaves gently to avoid bruising them. Pour the dressing over the mixture and toss lightly.
  4. Transfer to a platter and finish with a final crack of black pepper.
