There is just nothing more spectacular in the summer than a salad straight from the garden. Fresh ripened veggies and even herbs for dressing can be picked at a moments whim. My favorite selection for my salad “whims” comes in the form of a classic Caprese salad. This takes a total of ten minutes to prepare from garden to table.
I like easy. Bon appetit y’all!
Ingredients:
2 garden fresh tomatoes – Sliced
1 ball buffalo mozzarella – Sliced in equal thickness as tomatoes
10-12 fresh Basil leaves
2 tbsp…or more…GOOD Balsamic Vinegar
Directions:
Alternate tomato and mozzarella slices, topping with fresh Basil and balsamic.
Alternative: For a slightly different flavor, tomatoes, basil and Mozzarella can be sliced, then stacked alternating tomatoes, Basil & Cheese, wrapped in tin foil and placed on the grill for a great roasted Caprese Salad.
how interesting.
