    I made this a few years ago for company and it was outstanding! If you use a really good quality mozzarela you can not go wrong! The tomato's were wonderful because they were vine ripened! I do believe this would make a huge difference. I think the extra oil would make a great marinade for your meat of choice. This is a wonderful recipe!

    This was a really fresh, great, summertime salad. It was an outstanding way to take in vegetables.

    Great dressing but way too much. 2 cups of olive oil for 4 salads? I wish I would have halved or even quartered the recipe.
