INGREDIENTS – Halloumi cheese – Tomatoes (cherry or grape) – Basil – EVOO – White wine vinegar – Salt and pepper
This salad takes minutes to make! I's so fresh and perfect for serving in the summer. Just a few ingredients will serve up a flavorful dish. Halloumi, prepared on the grill, becomes savory and salty but also creamy and pairs perfectly with basil and tomatoes.
Halloumi cheese is a Greek semi-hard cheese made from goat and sheep’s milk. In most recipes, you see it grilled because it really holds up under the high heat.
SLICE UP YOUR TOMATOES INTO HALVES.
PREPARE THE BASIL VINAIGRETTE JUST AS YOU'RE ABOUT TO SERVE THE SALAD.
HALLOUMI GRILLS UP FAST AND ONLY NEEDS ABOUT 4 MINUTES ON ONE SIDE, ABOUT 2-3 ON THE OTHER. LET IT GET THOSE CHAR MARKS!
ASSEMBLE THE HALLOUMI SALAD BY TOPPING THE VINAIGRETTE OVER EACH PIECE WITH SOME TOMATOES.
