I was determined to make this at home, and was really astounded at how easy and simple it is. It has become a go-to crowd pleaser.
Ingredients:
- 8oz fresh mozzarella, chopped
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinagrette dressing
- 24oz vine-ripened cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 cup fresh basil, coursely chopped or torn
Combine all ingredients in a bowl; adjust dressing and basil to taste. Voila!
It drives me crazy when Panera does that! Great idea to recreate this salad at home. Can't wait to try it!
ReplyDeleteA classic recipe and also a fave of mine! :)
ReplyDeleteLooks fantastic! I love caprese anything :)
ReplyDeleteI can say that Lauren's is as fabulous as Panera's...actually more fabulous coz you can have seconds without paying and her couch is so much more comfy that the chairs at Panera and she won't look at me mean if my child makes noise or a mess. It is a pretty incredible salad! TeeHee!
