Easy delicious salad with creamy mozzarella & sweet tomatoes

Ingredients

  • 450 g 500g Tomatoes make sure they are really tasty ones, I use mixed ones - different colours are nice
  • 1/2 - 1 Red Onion finely chopped
  • Salt & Freshly Ground Black Pepper
  • 1 large Buffalo Mozzarella torn into pieces, roughly
  • Hand-full torn Basil leaves
  • 1 - 2 Tablespoon Olive Oil
  • Heaped dessert spoon Green Pesto
  • Optional - a few sun-dried tomatoes

Instructions

  • Cut your tomatoes into bit sized pieces, I tend to cut cherry ones in half and larger ones into 4-6 pieces - place in a large bowl.
  • (If you are adding sun-dried tomatoes add them now too)
  • Next add the finely chopped red onion together with a sprinkling of salt and plenty of freshly ground black pepper
  • Next add the Olive oil and pesto and stir round
  • Add the torn Mozzarella and torn Basil leaves and just combine using  2 spoons , you don't want it all slimy and green so just minimal mixing
  • Make it look pretty with a few basil leaves on top
