Some things you just don’t mess with…Like: the remote control when the golf or football is on, re-working a Beatles classic and the Caprese Salad is one of those things not to be messed with. It’s as simple a thing you’ll ever make with just three ingredients: Mozzarella, Ripe Plum Tomatoes, Fresh Basil leave and a drizzle of olive oil. That said, I like to add just a little lemon zest, hardly a re-work.
By the way the dish was created to represent the Italian national flag of Green White & Red.
Ingredients
- Ripe Plum Tomatoes
- Ball Buffalo Mozzarella
- Fresh Basil Leaves
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Tear or cut mozzarella and place a piece on top of each tomato and top that with a basil leaf.

Season with salt and pepper, drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle the lemon zest over. Serve.
