EXCELLENT
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This salad was exceptional in taste and very easy even for a beginner like myself. The flavored vinegar and olive oil made... an excellent topping to the tomatoes and mozzarella. Presentation was awesome. Don't be afraid of the peppers - just right even for the milder palate. Highly recommend this recipe.Read more

Excellent overall, everyone loved it and its easy to get a really nice presantation. I quartered the recipe for the dressing... and still had enough for 4 people. I added some sliced cucumber around the edge which added a nice crunch.Read more
