Caprese Salad

IMG_1084

Ingredients:

  • Salad blend
  • Mozzarella (I used balls, cut up into large chunks)
  • Thinly sliced red onion
  • Basil, shredded
  • Cherry tomatoes, halved
  • Balsamic vinegar
  • Oil

Just toss to combine. This couldn’t be easily, and it is so healthy and good for you. I could seriously eat the whole bowl myself. And I may have.

I’m also participating in Top 2 Tuesday, hosted by The Undomestic Momma. Click on the picture to participate!

Top 2 Favorite Things About Fall:

Cooler weather. Man, I hate to sweat. Seriously. I also love that cooler weather means I can wear more clothes. Keepin’ it real – more clothes means more layers to hide my fat. Holla!

Fall also means that Starbucks is rolling out their holiday drinks. Pumpkin spice lattes, peppermint white chocolate mochas, cinnamon dolce lattes, eggnog lattes…. hello, get in my belly right now. I have on a chunky sweater, no one will notice.

What do you love about fall?

That salad looks great! That reminds me of another thing I love about fall: ripe tomatoes! Thanks for sharing!

Yum-May!

I love sweaters and wish I had the chance to wear them more than I do, living in Florida it's a very small window! Fall to me at Starbucks is Pumpkin Spice Latte!

Ok, I totally thought that the red stuff in the picture were strawberries and the white stuff were bananas before I read the recipe. Oh Emm Gee, how embarassing for me! (*hiding head in shame now!*)

But your recipe sounds just as good!

I wish I lived closer to a Starby's. Those drinks sound amazing!

I had my first pumpkin spice latte last week. Definitely a great addition to fall.

I'm with you on the sweating issue! These Charleston summers are no joke! I must down several large jugs of water and I hate water. C'mon fall! :)
The holiday drinks are exciting too!

YUM! I had my first Caprese salad just a little while ago at a restaurant and was hooked. Been craving it ever since. Thanks for feeding the crave. Now I can make my own!!

Yummo! I love caprese salads. They are so refreshing. I agree, I love the cooler weather too. I like being to layer and wear cute coats and boots. :) And the Starbucks holiday drinks are to die for!

Kate said...
