How To Make The Perfect Summer Salad
This easy to make salad is refreshing and fun - perfect for the summer!
What You'll Need:
1) 1 lb. fresh mozzarella (sliced)
2) 4 large or 6 medium ripe tomatoes (sliced)
3) 1 bunch basil, stems removed (Here's how to reuse them!)
4) Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
5) Flaky sea salt
6) Freshly ground black pepper
Directions:
1) Layer the sliced mozzarella, tomato, and basil in any pattern you like (I prefer alternating).
2) Drizzle with olive oil, salt and pepper.
OR
Follow instructions up to step 2 and instead of seasoning with olive oil, salt, and pepper, instead use balsamic vinaigrette. This creates the salad version of caprese skewers (as pictured above)!

This quick and easy salad serves 4-6, and takes about 5 - 10 minutes to make.
You could stop here for a light and refreshing dinner or you could pair this dish with a summery fruit salad.
