Time 25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup balsamic vinegar
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 head red leaf lettuce
4 tomatoes, sliced
2 balls of fresh mozzarella, sliced
¼ small red onion, sliced
½ cup fresh raspberries
½ cup sliced black olives
2 teaspoons dried basil
salt and black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Pour balsamic vinegar into a small saucepan, and add the crushed garlic; bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until the vinegar has reduced to 1/4 cup. Set aside, and cool to room temperature.
  • Divide the lettuce leaves among 4 salad plates. Arrange the tomato slices on top of the lettuce, then place the mozzarella on top of the tomatoes. Sprinkle the salads with the red onion, raspberries, and sliced black olives. Season with dried basil, salt, and pepper; drizzle with the olive oil and balsamic vinegar.

I love this salad! The balsamic reduction is so flavorful. I've also tried making it with different types of cheese, like feta and goat cheese.
