About Tomato mozzarella salad

Tomato Mozzarella Salad, also known as Insalata Caprese, is a classic Italian dish that highlights fresh and simple ingredients. It traditionally consists of ripe, juicy tomatoes, creamy mozzarella cheese, fresh basil leaves, and a drizzle of olive oil and balsamic vinegar, often seasoned with salt and pepper. This salad is a celebration of Mediterranean flavors and is loved for its light, refreshing taste. Nutritionally, the salad is rich in vitamins and minerals. Tomatoes provide vitamin C, potassium, and antioxidants like lycopene, which may promote heart health. Fresh mozzarella offers protein and calcium, supporting muscle and bone health. Olive oil contributes healthy monounsaturated fats, beneficial for heart health. However, it can be calorie-dense due to the cheese and oil, so portion control is important for those watching calorie intake. Overall, it’s a nutrient-packed dish perfect as a starter or light meal.
