Description

This tomato basil mozzarella salad is all about summer’s best: ripe tomatoes, fresh cheese and peppery herbs. The flavor is out of this world.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 to 8 ripe heirloom tomatoes, of different colors and sizes
  • 4 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese
  • 1 handful basil leaves
  • Extra-virgin olive oil
  • Balsamic reduction (optional)
  • Sea salt
  • Fresh ground pepper

Instructions

  1. Slice the tomatoes and place them on a plate.
