Caprese Salad Recipe

Caprese Salad

Keep it simple, stupid

Sometimes, I feel like I get pulled into these recipes with a shopping list that I could almost jump rope with. Nothing against a delicious recipes with a kajillion steps thats’s worth it… but sometimes, it is so pleasant just to keep it simple. This is a warm summer nice in a bite.

When flavors are so simple, the key to nailing this is using the best ingredients possible. This is the time to bring out your highest quality olive oil, balsamic, and use the freshest tomatoes you can find.
