We start with Mozzarella pearls, usually found in the deli section but may be in the cheese section. I keep these on-hand all the time. They make a great addition to many dishes and can be used like any other mozzarella cheese in pasta or on pizza. They are fairly inexpensive and well worth it. The package I buy is vacuum packed and they keep for a very long time in the fridge.

Earl Cooks Cucumber Salad with Mozzarella Pearls & Tomatoes
The genesis of this recipe comes from Lydia Bastianich, although I doubt she would want credit. Sometimes, just to take a break from our meat-centric diet, I prepare something almost vegetarian for dinner. This is one of those dishes. It is very simple and surprisingly satisfying.
