"A Melon, Mozzarella + Honeyed Fig Caprese salad - another side salad that is perfect for a dinner party, BBQ or any type of get together! ?. I've been loving this salad lately- so light and fresh with the basil + mint. It's a perfectly delicious pairing to chicken, beef or pasta! The prosciutto definitely balances the sweetness of the salad, but you could omit it also for a vegetarian version!
The fireworks are already going off with all the celebrations! Happy Fourth of July everyone! ??. Be safe! Cheers! .
