This was delicious. I used a mix of feta and grated cheddar as I had no bocconcini and my vegies were potatoes, carrots, zucchini, yellow peppers and tomatoes. It made a generous amount and was a fabulous meal. Made for Everyday is a Holiday tag game.

What a beautiful and delicious salad! The dressing is phenominal (although I did stir in a crushed clove of garlic after whipping it with the immersion blender.) I'd not made anything eith bocconcini before, and I don't know why! Oh, I had some beautiful grape tomatoes on hand, so I used those instead of the large tomatoes - one pint worth. Thanks, Lori Mama!
