Marinated Mozzarella Balls! (With Basil and Cherry Tomatoes)

Start with 2 tubs of Mozzarella balls. (8 oz. each)
Rinse and set aside. You will need 1 1/2 cups of cherry tomatoes.

Make a marinade!

Blend 1 cup of Basil leaves, 1 tbs. chopped parsley, 1 tsp. garlic,
1 tsp. lemon juice, 1/2 tsp. red wine vinegar, and pinch of oregano.
Then start with 1/4 cup olive oil and add oil a little at a time until it gets smooth.

You can use a food processor.

After it is blended add 1/3 tsp. red pepper flakes and then a pinch of salt and pepper. (forgot to add the salt and pepper in the video)

Pour mixture over the cheese balls and store in the refrigerator.
When it is time to serve add the tomatoes and chill for no more
then 1 to 2 hours.

Remember tomatoes don’t go in the refrigerator they are best
stored on the counter at room temperature.

If you bring tomatoes home from the store and put them in the
refrigerator they loose there taste. That is why the tomatoes are
never in the refrigerated section at the store.

Serve on a bed of lettuce or make appetizers by putting a cheese
ball then 1/3 piece of a basil leaf then a cherry tomato on a tooth pic.

Enjoy!

  1. Roast those cherry tomatoes and you might not be so leary of letting the salad sit for more than a day.

  2. I've made caprese salad in the past. But I like the concept you used in this recipe. Definitely gonna apply some of these ideas for my next salad. Thanks for posting.

  3. Thanks for the recipe. We had a bumper crop of cherry tomatoes this year, so I was looking for things to make with them. Found this recipe and thought I'd try it. I made this for a family gathering and it was a huge hit.

  4. On my way to a wine tasting @ wine country. I am responsible for the first appetizer. This is my home run!!!!
