SALAD CAPRESE
Soooo, one of my favorite things of ALL time would have to definitely be Salad Caprese, in any form imaginable.
It is possibly the most simple amazing thing to make. you need literally 3 ingredients(however I use like 6) haha…but still that is so simple.
1) TOMATOES
2) FRESH MOZZARELLA CHEESE
3) FRESH BASIL
4) GOOD OLIVE OIL
5) BALSAMIC VINEGAR
6) SALT
okkkk now for the tricky part:
Slice your tomato,mozzarella, and basil. Alternate slices of tomato and cheese and sprinkle with basil. Drizzle with olive oil and a tiny bit of balsamic vinegar and if you so like(I do) a bit of Kosher salt. And beeeeeeeeehold:
HEAVEN
Try not to drool.
I have also made another version of this amazing invention! It is an party appetizer version of the same thing. So fun and cute and soooo easy to make and eat! You use all the same ingredients except in different forms. This time you will need GRAPE TOMATOES and small MOZZARELLA BALLS oh and toothpicks! I just slice the tomatoes in half and start poking away with the toothpick. I usually do Mozzaralla, basil, tomato. I find they don’t easily slip off that way and they stand up straight on a platter, but you can do what you like 🙂
How fun is that right?!? Fresh, Refreshing, Summer loving….ahhh. good food.
If you have recipes that are similar or another version, please share as I’m obsessed 🙂
Thanks for reading,

Same ingredients, chunked and put in a bowl. Maybe some cucumber if you have one and that appeals to you. The juices release and when nobody is looking, you drink it and think omg …
