Caprese Salad


For anyone who hasn't had this delightful summer salad, give it a try if you want a refreshing side dish without turning on the stove. It's a super way to showcase your garden fresh tomatoes, as the flavors are subtle and will really be appreciated.

On a platter layer:
1/2 lb. fresh mozzarella
2 lg. tomatoes

Slice them thin and arrange on plate as shown. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt, pepper and fresh (or dried) Basil. Add a few drops of Balsamic vinegar if you like.
You're done, and you didn't even have to cook anything!
