Cherry Tomatoes: You can use grape tomatoes as well but I like cherry tomatoes because they are sweeter. Mozzarella Balls: If you can’t find any mozzarella balls at your grocery store then you can get fresh mozzarella and cut it up into small cubes. Olive Oil: I used regular olive oil but you can also use extra virgin olive oil instead. White Wine Vinegar: White wine vinegar brings some zing to the flavor of the salad. Balsamic Vinegar: I love the sweet and tart flavor of balsamic vinegar in this recipe. Lemon Juice: The lemon juice brings in a fresh and bright taste. Italian Seasoning: You can buy this at the store or you can use my homemade Italian seasoning recipe. Basil Leaves: Chop your fresh basil leaves up nice and fine so that you get some in every bite! Salt and Black Pepper: Add as much or as little as you want according to your taste.
