For an extra layer of flavor, toast the almonds lightly before chopping. Feel free to add other vegetables like cherry tomatoes or red onion for added color and taste. If you don't have mini mozzarella balls, you can use regular mozzarella, diced into small cubes. Adjust the amount of balsamic vinegar to your liking. A little goes a long way! This salad is best served fresh, but it can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Be aware that the zucchini may release some moisture over time.
