Fresh mozzarella, ripe cherry tomatoes, and torn basil are a classic combination for a reason — bright, creamy, and just a little indulgent. Using butter lettuce leaves as the vessel keeps everything light and crisp while naturally sidestepping any processed wrappers or shells that might sneak in unwanted additives. The dressing here is beautifully simple: extra-virgin olive oil, balsamic glaze, flaky sea salt, and cracked black pepper — nothing that requires a label check or a second guess. Many store-bought dressings and antipasto components rely on emulsifiers to hold their texture together, but this one comes together with a quick whisk and stays clean from start to finish. The optional prosciutto and Kalamata olives add a savory, briny depth that takes the whole platter up a notch. These cups are elegant enough for a dinner party spread but easy enough to throw together on a weeknight when you want something that feels a little special.
