This is my go-to summer salad recipe. If you are looking for something light and easy to prepare with a fresh, Italian flavor profile that will wow your guests and elevate you to stellar tea party hostess status, this recipe is for you! Over a couple summers it's been tweaked, vetted and approved by the taste buds of some dear friends and now it's ready to be served at your summer tea party. I hope you love it.
Ingredients:
1 tub of small fresh mozzarella cheese balls packed in water, drained & cut in half
1 pkg grape cherry tomatoes, rinsed, drained & cut in half
1/2 lb thinly-sliced prosciutto cut into bite-size pieces
1 cup fresh basil, stems removed & roughly chopped
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, washed and roughly chopped
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
salt & pepper to taste
Procedure:
Combine first 5 ingredients in a large salad bowl.
Then add the olive oil and toss gently to coat.
Finally, season with salt & pepper as desired.
Serve immediately.
Salad makes 4 servings.
