Zucchini noodle caprese salad recipe
Our zucchini Caprese salad recipe is only the beginning. It's a fabulous way to enjoy some of your favorite meals minus all the carb-tastic guilt!
Ingredients
- 3 cups cherry tomatoes
- 5 medium zucchinis
- 1 cup small fresh mozzarella balls
- 1/4 cup white balsamic vinegar
- salt and pepper to taste
- 4–5 Basil leaves for garnish
Instructions
- Rinse cherry tomatoes and slice into halves. Using a spiralizer with the smallest blades, make zucchini noodles. Place tomatoes and ‘noodles’ in large bowl and cover with mozzarella balls. If small balls are not available, cut a large mozzarella ball into smaller chunks.
- Drizzle vinegar over salad and toss. Check for seasoning then transfer to serving bowl or individual plates and garnish with sliced basil leaves.
Notes
We kept the seasonings simple, but don’t be afraid to experiment with a little oregano or add heat with red pepper flakes.
