Insalata Caprese Buffalo mozzarella Salad

Caprese salad is a very simple Italian salad and so very easy to make.   I found buffalo mozzarella at Trader Joe’s.  I bought a fresh basil plant at Trader Joe’s two years ago and replanted it in soil and I’ve had fresh basil for several years.

Ingredients:

Buffalo Mozzarella
2 large ripe tomatoes ( red, yellow or orange )
Fresh Basil
Extra virgin olive oil
Sea salt
Fresh ground pepper

Place tomatoes and buffalo mozzarella in a diagonal line on a platter or plate.  Add a pinch of salt and freshly ground pepper.  Between tomato and cheese place a whole basil leaf.  Drizzle extra virgin olive oil and a nice balsamic vinegar over the salad.  You can also mix the balsamic and olive oil than drizzle over the salad.

You can also enjoy this salad with a french baguette,  as a mozzarella sandwich.  Place  mozzarella and tomatoes between the baguette add balsamic , olive oil and basil.

Enjoy<3
