Ingredients

Scale

Fruits

  • 2 cups halved strawberries, stem removed
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1 cup fresh blackberries
  • 1 cup fresh raspberries

Dairy

  • 8 ounces fresh mozzarella balls

Herbs & Seasonings

  • 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves

Dressings

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Drizzle of balsamic glaze

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, gently combine the halved strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, fresh mozzarella balls, and basil leaves to evenly distribute all the flavors.
  2. Add Olive Oil: Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the mixed salad and gently stir to coat the ingredients lightly without breaking the berries or mozzarella.
  3. Finish with Balsamic Glaze: Drizzle balsamic glaze over the top of the salad to add a tangy sweetness. Serve immediately to enjoy the fresh flavors and textures.

Notes

  • Use fresh, ripe berries for the best flavor.
  • Fresh mozzarella balls can be substituted with sliced mozzarella if preferred.
  • Basil can be chopped or torn according to taste.
  • Balsamic glaze adds sweetness and acidity; adjust the amount to preference.
  • This salad is best served fresh, as the berries and cheese can release moisture if stored for too long.
