Hello Everyone! On today’s menu, we have a delicious Mozzarella, Cherry Tomato, & Rocket Salad. If you like mozzarella we are 100% sure you’ll love this recipe! It’s so refreshing, delicious, and colorful. You know how much we love Italian cuisine, and this recipe is a modification of a famous Italian Caprese Salad.

We decided to switch some ingredients from the original recipe and to make something unique but still tasty! Instead of fresh basil, we added a lot of rocket. For dressing, we used fresh lemon juice instead of balsamic vinegar.

This mouthwatering healthy salad can serve one to 2 persons, depending on if you are eating it as a side or a main dish. What most of you will love the most is that you won’t need more than 5 min to make it! Yes, you heard it right! Only 5 minutes! 

Kids usually love mozzarella. If you have kids who don’t like salads or any types of greens, this is a perfect way to “trick” them info start eating healthier. Try and let us know :).
