7. Yeah, no I do a very similar tomato mix often

Sliced cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, fresh mozzarella, fresh basil, basil infused olive oil, tri-color bell peppers ... and a splash of white vinegar with of course salt and pepper.

Marinade for about 45 mins ... then toss the lot into cooked, but chilled pasta. Toss and chill together briefly and serve.

It's an amazing combo for pasta salad

If you say Caesar and Basil are good together maybe I'll try 'em a green salad sometime.

Sounds ... interesting, I love both but never thought to mix them.



I also do that trick with green salads, marinade the veggies first then toss with the lettuce after a quick marinade. It's awesome. Just not tried with Basil
