This super simple recipe features only six ingredients. The combination of crunchy lettuce, tangy rich sun-dried tomatoes and creamy mozzarella topped with the sweet zing of balsamic vinegar is packed with flavor and eye-catching color. Have the ingredients ready and toss together at the last minute to preserve the crunch of the lettuce. Save a bit of prep time by using moist-packed sun-dried tomatoes, which don't need to be soaked in hot water. This Italian-inspired salad is a great starter for a lasagna dinner or other pasta dish. Top the salad with some grilled slices of chicken and you have a seriously delicious dinner salad.
