Tomato, Basil & Mozzarella Salad

1. 1

   Now I know it may sound weird adding dates to this salad but they actually accentuate the flavor of the balsamic vinegar, thus making the salad even more delicious! If you aren't a fan of dates feel free to leave them out, but I promise you they really are good in here!

2. 2

   Add tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, basil leaves and dates into a salad bowl. Drizzle balsamic vinegar over the salad, toss and serve.

   For a fancier look:

4. 4

   Slice the tomatoes into 1/4 inch thickness. Drain cheese of any excess water and slice into 1/4-inch slices. Set aside.

5. 5

   Chiffonade basil. Arrange the tomato and cheese slices on a platter so they overlap each other. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar. Top with the basil and dates.

6. 6

   Please note: you can also drizzle a bit of extra virgin olive oil over the salad if you like. It'll taste good either way!

   Enjoy!
