MARINATED MOZZARELLA, OLIVES AND CHERRY TOMATOES

Marinated Mozzarella, Olives and Cherry Tomatoes image

This simple dish of marinated cherry tomatoes, olives and mozzarella is best, of course, when cherry tomatoes are in season. That it gets better as it sits is a boon: Bring it to potlucks or picnics, or simply let it sit in your refrigerator, a satisfying lunch at home. A generous handful of basil leaves, sprinkled atop just before serving, gives everything a bright, herbal finish. You'll want to make this all summer long.

MARINATED MOZZARELLA

Marinated Mozzarella image

This is very simple to make and great to have for parties. I buy the sun dried tomatoes (julienne cut) in olive oil and use the oil from these for the marinade instead of plain olive oil. These can be served on toothpicks with some artichokes and kalamata olives. I use my pickled garlic since it adds a little extra flavor http://www.recipezaar.com/273359
