Caprese Salad

Another 5 minute salad… So tasty and fresh, it always goes down well. You can add to the salad and use your imagination to present in any way.

Tomatoes
Buffalo Mozzarella OR Bocconcini
Fresh Basil
Drizzle with Olive Oil OR Caremalised balsamic
Season with salt

Different ways I’ve presented it…

Fresh Fig & Prosciutto Salad

This salad is a good one for when you are having a group over and need a few salads for the meal…it takes about 5 minutes to prepare and is pretty tasty and looks good on the table!

All you need is:
4 fresh figs – washed and quartered
2 balls of buffalo mozzarella OR a handful of bocconcini – torn into pieces
5 slices of prosciutto – torn into smaller strips
Rocket leaves
Caremalised balsamic vinegar

Assemble ingredients, drizzle with the vinegar…use your inner artist to create a masterpiece – done!

Notes – buffalo mozzarella is available at good delis but is a much dearer option, bocconcini does the job.
