This is one of my favorite go-to salads. I used different color tomatoes in recipe because it was the end of summer and I had an abundance of fresh tomatoes from my garden, but you can use any variations of tomatoes that are available. I also used mozzarella balls sliced in half but just as often I use sliced fresh mozzarella, whatever I find on sale is what I use in this recipe. This salad takes just 5 minutes from start to finish, looks and tastes amazing!
