Recipe by:

"This tastes like the salad that is served at a famous Italian restaurant chain in my area. It's perfect with fresh loaf of crusty bread. For the best flavor be sure to use fresh whole-milk mozzarella it puts the packaged varieties to shame. You can find fresh mozzarella in Italian delis, gourmet markets, cheese shops and some grocery stores."

Tomatoes and fresh basil are a classic combination! It doesn't get much better or much simpler that this - it's absolutely delicious! I decreased the onion and I probably could have left it out ...

The flavor was great, but I think I'll stick with Bruschetta, it's easier to eat.

Use fresh ingredients...especially the mozzerella, and seed the tomatoes so it's not a wet mess.
