Tomato and Mozzarella Salad

I wanted to make  something to go with supper one night but I wanted something a little different from the norm.  We always have beans, peas, corn or asparagus and while there’s absolutely nothing wrong with any of those I just wanted a change.  The main dish of the meal had a lot of veggies in it, so I thought something light would pair with it perfectly.

I had a pint of grape tomatoes in the refrigerator so I really wanted to do something with those.  I thought a fresh mozzarella and tomato salad would be perfect.  It was so easy to put together and it tasted incredible.  It really complimented the main dish perfectly.
