Ingredients

  • 120 grams lactose free mozzarella*
  • 1 medium roma tomato maximum 130 grams
  • 1 handful fresh basil leaves
  • 1 pinch black pepper to taste
  • 1 tbsp olive oil to drizzle on top

Instructions

  • Drain the mozzarella and cut into thin slices.
  • Cut the tomato into roughly as many slices as the mozzarella.
  • Select a similar amount of basil leaves and arrange the mozzarella, tomato and basil on a plate in any way you desire. We placed ours on a bed of spinach to make it go a little further.
  • Season with a little black pepper and drizzle with a little olive oil. We used a little balsamic glaze too for extra flavour!
  • Serve immediately. This salad ought to be eaten within a day or so, since the mozzarella and tomato are wet, the salad can get a little soggy if left for too long.

Notes

*If you don't have access to lactose-free mozzarella you can still enjoy up to 40 grams of normal mozzarella. This salad would need to be split into 3 portions in this case!
