Summer Side Idea

We are so blessed to live in a town that does tons of fun events for the family outside in the summer.  Every Tuesday we meet up with friends for Family Fun Night in the park and pack a picnic dinner!  A great easy side to take to any picnic or bbq is a Tomato, Cucumber and Mozzarella Salad.  It is delicious, fresh and quick!  Best part, no cooking involved for hot summer nights!

I packaged this batch up in mason jars to easily transport them to the park.

1 package (10.5 oz) grape tomatoes

1 package (8 oz) ciliegine mozzarella (grape sized balls)

3 mini cucumbers (cut in quarters)

1 tbsp olive oil

Salt & Pepper

Basil

Mix all ingredients in a bowl.  Toss to cover well with olive oil.  Add salt and pepper to taste.  You can also add fresh or dried basil to brighten the flavors.

 Enjoy!
