How to Make Avocado Tomato And Mozzarella Tower Salad
- Prepare the ingredients: Dice the avocado and halve the cherry tomatoes. If using whole mozzarella balls, ensure they are small enough to fit within the ring molds.
- Assemble the towers: Divide the mozzarella, avocado, and tomatoes evenly. In each 3-inch ring mold, layer approximately 1/4 cup mozzarella, 1/3 cup diced avocado, and 1/4 cup halved tomatoes. Repeat layering until the mold is full or desired height is reached.
- Chill and drain: Gently place each ring mold on a wire rack set over a baking sheet to allow excess liquid to drain. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the layers to set and the flavors to meld.
- Prepare the salad bed: Place a bed of baby spinach or mixed greens on each serving plate.
- Unmold the towers: Carefully invert each ring mold onto a prepared salad plate, gently removing the mold to reveal the beautiful avocado, tomato, and mozzarella tower.
- Drizzle and serve: Drizzle balsamic glaze over each salad. Serve immediately with chili oil on the side for those who want extra heat.
- Enjoy your stunning and delicious Avocado, Tomato & Mozzarella Tower Salad!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
