Sigh, is there anything really better than cool, sweet, and tangy caprese salad? Especially when the temperature is rising like it has been lately, we love this simple dish as a snack, side, or light meal!
You'll need:
Mozzarella
Tomatoes
Basil
Olive oil
Salt 'n pepper
Balsamic reduction
Directions:
In a small saucepan, bring balsamic vinegar to a boil over medium-low heat. Cook for 10 to 20 minutes, or until balsamic has reduced to a thicker glaze. Remove from heat and transfer to a bowl or cruet. Allow to cool.
When you're ready to serve, arrange tomato and mozzarella slices on a platter. Arrange basil leaves between the slices. Drizzle olive oil over the top of the salad, getting a little bit on each slice. Do the same with the balsamic reduction, making designs if you want! Store extra balsamic reduction in fridge for a later use.
End with a sprinkling of kosher salt and black pepper. Serve as a lunch, with crusty bread. Or serve alongside a beef main course for dinner.

Enjoy!
