Balsamic Mint Salad with String Cheese & Roma Tomatoes

Craving change? Reinvent the typical to feed your need for adventure. Here is a fresh take on a Caprese salad that will nourish your mood in no time! 

Often there is a lack of creativity on the salad front.  Simple fix: Change out primary ingredients while maintaining the general integrity of the recipe. Try fresh mint leaves instead of basil, pulled string cheese instead of Mozzarella cheese, Roma tomatoes instead of the larger tomatoes, then drizzle with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, sprinkle with salt, and finish with cracked white and black pepper. Serve with pita chips for that crunch balance. Flavor is through the roof! The perfect dish to inspire the senses (via the Mint leaves) and the palette (via the unique recipe).
