Notes
Make ahead tip: Mix the balsamic and olive oil together and store in a small container. Prep the other ingredients, leaving tomatoes whole, and place in a large container. Just before eating, halve the tomatoes and add the dressing and toss.
Vegan alternative: Leave out the mozzarella, or replace with a plant-based alternative.
