Avocado Tomato and Mozzarella Salad.

I found this recipe on Pinterest a few months ago and I put on my list of recipes that I wanted to make. I had decided that this would be perfect with fresh tomatoes from the garden, so I have been waiting and waiting. But this week we finally had tomatoes that were ripe enough to pick.

This recipe came to mind, I put avocados and mozzarella on the shopping list, so I was sure to have everything to make this salad. I made this salad the other evening for dinner and it was as delicious as I thought it would be.

It is always nice to find a side dish that has great flavor and that is healthy as well. The salad is probably best to eat right after making it, but I ate the left overs for a couple of days. The avocado will get a little mushy after it sits in the refrigerate, but the flavor is still delicious.

    The avocados are such a fun way to dress up caprese!

    I love Avocado and there’s nothing like the taste of fresh tomatoes. I’d love this salad.

    Great combo of flavor. I make tomato and mozzarella salads all the time, but I don’t think I’ve ever included avocado – terrific idea! Thanks.

    Sounds heavenly to me! I have a gigantic heirloom tomato to use, and your salad looks like the perfect solution! Hope you’re enjoying the holiday weekend, Dawn!
