Caprese Chicken Salad

June 7, 2017

I know I know…everyone knows about caprese salad.

Caprese Chicken SaladBut do you know about the balsamic dressing that goes with it???

Let’s first chat about caprese salad – it’s the best right? It never gets old and it’s one of the more gorgeous salads out there. It’s incredibly easy to make and has limited ingredients…I love when 4 ingredients come together and create a staple recipe that is undeniably good.

Caprese Chicken SaladTomatoes are so pretty right now. I am not a huge tomato fan…I’m not popping them in my mouth for a snack or anything, but I do like them in salads…mixed in with other ingredients. Are you like me or can you eat a tomato like an apple?

Caprese Chicken SaladOk…so this dressing. YOU HAVE TO MAKE IT. I got this recipe (well it’s just really on the back of the little packet), but our family friend told me about it and it’s the only balsamic dressing I use because it’s that good. You can doctor it up a little if you would like by adding garlic or fresh herbs, but I kept it very straight forward for this recipe. It smells amazing and brings all the caprese salad ingredients TOGETHER. We all know basil, tomatoes and mozzarella cheese do not really mean anything without balsamic vinegar.

The packet I use is Good Seasons Balsamic Vinegar. It’s similar to a ranch packet seasoning starter. It’s amazing and it’s a delicious salad dressing for all types of salads, but I particularity love it for this Caprese Chicken Salad!
