Avocado Tomato and Mozzarella Salad.

I found this recipe on Pinterest a few months ago and I put on my list of recipes that I wanted to make. I had decided that this would be perfect with fresh tomatoes from the garden, so I have been waiting and waiting. But this week we finally had tomatoes that were ripe enough to pick.

This recipe came to mind, I put avocados and mozzarella on the shopping list, so I was sure to have everything to make this salad. I made this salad the other evening for dinner and it was as delicious as I thought it would be.

It is always nice to find a side dish that has great flavor and that is healthy as well. The salad is probably best to eat right after making it, but I ate the left overs for a couple of days. The avocado will get a little mushy after it sits in the refrigerate, but the flavor is still delicious.
