    I love the freshness of tomatoes and basil. Put it together with fresh mozzarella and a balsamic drizzle and it is irresistible to me. I ate this all by myself and I'm not ashamed to admit it! This simple Caprese Salad is a great addition to your picnic table.

    While this is nothing new to anyone, I am sharing it because I want record of it here as something that I love!  After all, my motive is to have this blog full of recipes that I love and want my boys to have at their fingertips should they want to make something I have made and enjoyed!  Christopher has taken advantage of this already as I know he makes my "Grumpy's Gone Bananas" banana bread 🙂
    Caprese Salad
    So quick, easy and simple to toss together and put in your picnic basket to enjoy on a picnic, at the beach, or take to a party!  I love how summer brings out the "fresh" desire for produce!  When your looking for fresh with some great flavor for a salad, this is definitely the way to go.

      I would have no problem eating this all by myself either! I love caprese salad! My husband doesn't really like mozzarella so I have had to adapt with my tomato salads to feta when making them for the family, but I still make this for myself sometimes. Your pictures are gorgeous!

      This is one of my very favorite salads ever. Of course anything with fresh mozzarella can't be bad in my book!
