Built on the beloved trio of tomato, mozzarella, and basil, this main-course salad turns a summer classic into something you can call dinner. Sliced grilled chicken adds warmth and protein, baby greens keep it fresh, and a drizzle of balsamic glaze pulls sweet and tangy notes across the plate. It comes together fast, packs neatly for lunch, and feels light without leaving you hungry.
