Caprese Salad

I absolutely LOVE Caprese Salad!! It is a simple Italian salad made with fresh tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, basil and a little olive oil and balsamic vinegar. It's great as an appetizer, or as a side dish with a big juicy steak. It's especially good with fresh picked home grown tomatoes!

On a platter, rotate slices of cheese and tomato, sprinkle dried basil, or if using fresh basil, place between cheese and tomatoes. Drizzle with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Salt and pepper to taste. Enjoy!!
