Mozzarella, Avocado, & Cherry Tomato Salad

I found this recipe on Pinterest, which took me to Ashley's Cooking Adventures. I followed this recipe pretty much to the letter except I guessed on the tomatoes since I bought this huge 2lb container at Sam's Club. It was so delicious and fresh tasting and I would DEFINITELY re-make it!


Mozzarella, Avocado, and Cherry Tomato Salad
Makes approx 3 servings
1 ripe avocado
2 cups cherry tomatoes; cut in half
4 oz fresh mozzarella; cut into bite sized pieces
2 Tbsp fresh basil (I have a jar of it so I used like 1/2 tsp)
2 Tbsp fresh parsley (I used dried, it still tasted AWESOME! I used 1 Tbsp)
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
salt and pepper to taste

Cut all of the tomatoes in half as well as the mozzarella. Place in bowl with the basil and parsley. In separate bowl, mix lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper and then pour over tomato mix. Refrigerate for 1 hour. When about to serve, add cut up avocado.

Enjoy!!!
