Grape tomatoes, mini mozzarella balls, fresh basil come together with a drizzle ofArbequina Extra Virgin Olive Oil and 18 Year Aged Balsamic to make this simple combination a real standout. If you can't find the mini mozzarella balls, cubed fresh mozzarella works just as well.
Ingredients:
2 cups grape tomatoes, halved
8 oz package mini mozzerella balls or 8 oz cubed fresh mozzarella
Approx 1/4 cup 18 Year Aged Balsamic
6 large fresh basil leaves
Arbequina Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Directions:
Place the halved grape tomatoes and mozzarella in a large serving bowl. Drizzle the tomatoes and mozzarella with Arbequina Extra Virgin Olive Oil--about a tablespoon or so.

Drizzle the salad with the 18 Year Aged Balsamic and serve!
