Preparation
Prepare the Ingredients
Wash the cherry tomatoes and basil leaves thoroughly under cold water. Pat them dry with a clean towel.
Slice the Tomatoes
Cut the cherry tomatoes in half and place them in a large mixing bowl.

Roughly chop the fresh basil leaves and add them to the bowl with the tomatoes.
Cube the Mozzarella
Cut the mozzarella cheese into small bite-sized cubes and add them to the mixing bowl.
Assembly
Mix the Salad
In the mixing bowl, drizzle the olive oil and balsamic glaze over the tomatoes, basil, and mozzarella. Season the mixture with salt and black pepper.
Toss Gently
Using a spatula or wooden spoon, gently toss the ingredients together to combine all the flavors without mashing the tomatoes or cheese.
Serve Immediately
Transfer the salad to a serving dish and enjoy immediately. If desired, serve with sliced avocado and crusty bread on the side.
