Tomatoes, Roasted Garlic & Melted Cheese Salad- a hearty side salad or a light one bowl lunch!

11/5/2021

Heat some olive oil in a pan and add finely chopped garlic (thin longitudinal slices). Once they start to soften, add thinly chopped onions. Pan roast for a few minutes. Then add couple of Bocconcini (fresh mozzarella pearls). Switch off heat source and let this cheese melt over (hot) roasted onions and garlic.

In a separate bowl cut couple of tomatoes into large chunks. Drizzle some flax seed oil and just a little of good quality Modena Balsamic Vinegar. Mix well. Top with roasted garlic, onion and melted cheese. Sprinkle some dried parsley, dried oregano and freshly ground black pepper. Finally garnish with Parmesan cheese petals and serve warm.

This is a good side salad or even a complete one-dish lunch. Melting mozzarella cheese makes it very chewy in a wonderful way and makes it blend incredibly well with all the other tastes! The mellowed pungent taste of roasted garlic & onions seems to merge with herbs and parmesan petals- where olive & flax seed oils seem to bring it all together along with Balsamic Vinegar (which highlights tomato flavor).

Bottom-line: a simple, easy to make and super yummy salad! :-)
