At this point, I have made literally hundreds of breakfast, lunch, dinner, dessert and snack recipes...this is going to be recipe #785 (literally!) on this blog, and there are a whole lot more waiting in line for me to share with you. But out of those hundreds and hundreds, there are a few that stand out in my memory and heart not only for the deliciousness but also for the happy memories. My grandmother's molasses cookies (one for each hand!), the lemon chicken pasta we made with friends on a fun snowy weekend, and this marinated mozzarella. My mama has been making this on warm lazy summer afternoons for as long as I can remember, and if you ask any of my best friends what their favorite recipe from my mother's kitchen is, I can almost promise they will all say in unison, "her marinated mozzarella with basil and sun-dried tomatoes!"
