How to Make Ww Caprese Rice Salad
- **Prep the Salad:** In a large bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar, 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil, 1 pint cherry or grape tomatoes (halved), 8 ounces fresh mozzarella (cubed), 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- **Cook the Rice:** Heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add 1/2 medium yellow onion (finely chopped) and cook until softened, about 3 minutes.
- **Add Rice and Water:** Stir in 1 cup jasmine rice (or basmati) and 1 pint of water.
- **Simmer to Perfection:** Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender. Fluff with a fork.
- **Combine & Serve:** Gently toss the cooked rice with the prepared tomato mixture. Serve warm or cold. Garnish with extra basil if desired.
