- Add 1/2 cup of tomatoes to each container.
- Divide the package of bocconcini evenly between the containers.
- Divide the diced onion evenly between the containers.
- Add the basil. Note: it will discolor after being cut. The color changes, but the flavor is just fine.
- Sprinkle salt and pepper to taste on top.
- Keep your dressing separate, and add at time of eating. My dressing for each container is one tablespoon of oil and one tablespoon of balsamic reduction. Feel free to use a balsamic dressing of choice.
- When it is time to eat, pour the dressing over the noodles, put the lid on your container and shake (gently).
- Caprese Cold Noodle Meal Prep can stay prepped in the fridge for 4 days.
