Caprese Salad

[Nightingale8472]

One of my favorites... I'm guessing I'll be snacking on this often when I'm in Italy this summer.

Caprese Salad

Ingredients:

4-5 Large Ripe Tomatos, sliced 1/4" thick

1 lb Fresh whole milk Mozzarella or Burrata sliced up to 1/4" thick

1/3 Cup fresh Basil, thinly sliced

Thinly sliced red onion (if desired).

Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Aged Balsamic Vinegar

Salt and Pepper to taste

Prepare ingredients. If you are using Burrata save any of the cream that leaks out when slicing and pour it into the center of your serving dish.

Starting at the center of your serving dish, layer tomato, onion and cheese in a circular pattern while working your way to the outside of your serving dish.

Drizzle first with approximately 1/4 cup of Aged Balsamic Vinegar and then approximately 1/4 cup of Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Add salt and freshly ground pepper to taste.

So just use ripe avocado instead of the cheese.
