6.15.18 I had a chunk of fresh mozzarella in the fridge so I cubed that instead of buying mozzarella balls. This was a very nice change from a traditional caprese salad. The tart lemon-y dressing partnered really well with the sweet strawberries and was very fresh and clean tasting. Russ Neis thanks for sharing your recipe. Read More
