Tomato-Basil Salad
Makes a 1-block snack
2 medium tomatoes, chopped
1 tsp olive oil
balsamic vinegar, to taste
basil, to taste
1 stick string cheese
Chop tomatoes, place in serving dish. Mix olive oil and balsamic vinegar; drizzle over the tomatoes. Sprinkle basil over the top. Serve with string cheese.
**especially tasty with home grown tomatoes and fresh basil** (dreaming of this after reading Margaret's post about her garden on another thread)

Replace string cheese with low-fat mozarella or feta cheese? |

Margaret, I think it was YOUR garden that I referred to when I first posted the recipe! LOL!
Bozena, it doesn't matter, you can use whatever cheese is desired. You can even use something else other than cheese! I posted this recipe a few years ago, so this is a re-post. It might even work out nice to add some chopped deli meat right to the salad.
thanks for the compliment, tech! |
