Although this is called "Owens Mozzarella and Tomato Salad" most people are familiar w/ the name Tomato Caprese. We served this w/ basil pesto on the side. Will post a picture.

I got beat out- I gave it a 5 star, but 2 people gave it 4. They didn't think it needed the mozzarella at all. But, it is still a very good recipe overall, with great flavor. We didn't use fresh cheese because the store didn't have any at the time. We left it sit out for the 1/2 hour instead, to let the flavors blend better. I think it's better then having it cold. But, will definitely make again...

OK - this is totally one of my favorite salads. I used cherry tomatoes instead of regular because I bought a hugh box of them at Costco. They are just the right size and they "pop" in your mouth. I also added some balsamic vinegar to the olive oil and tossed this with gourmet salad greens. I know I've changed the recipe around a little, but it did not affect the overall flavor of this recipe. Thankx Dell. PS. I see the "police" have removed part of my review.

Delicious. Instead of olive oil and balsamic vinegar, I added a balsamic vinagrette to mine after I layered my tomoatoes and mozzarella. Once the balsamic vinagrette was on I sprinkled fresh basil over the top. It was great.

Another fantastic way to eat tomatoes! The cheese was an "extra nice touch!"

One of my favorite salads. I did add a drizzle of balsamic vinegar over the tomatoes at the end for extra flavor. Great!

Wow, this was amazingly good. The fresh mozzarella *makes* this dish! I've made it a couple of times, and added a bit of tarragon vinegar to the salad the second time around. It's delicious either way. Definitely on my list for when I want to make something simple, yet hearty and appetizing. A "must-not-miss".
