Heirloom Tomato Caprese Salad

Heirloom tomatoes are one of my favorite varieties of tomatoes. They are vibrant, sweet and so unique. This is a perfect summer salad.
Course: Salad
Cuisine: American
Keyword: Vegetarian, Jain Friendly

Ingredients

  • 2-4 Heirloom Tomatoes
  • 8 oz fresh mozzarella cheese sliced
  • 1/2 cup olive oil extra virgin
  • 1/2 cup fresh basil chopped
  • 1 tbsp Italian seasoning
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper

Instructions

  • Mix olive oil, basil, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper together. Set aside.
  • Slice heirloom tomatoes into thick slices.
  • Layer mozzarella slices in between each tomato slice.
  • Drizzle seasoned olive oil with basil over the salad.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

I got my Heirloom Tomatoes from Costco. I also used BelGioioso sliced mozzarella also available at Costco. I used Spice Islands Italian seasoning (found also at Costco) which is Jain friendly. I recommend using high quality extra virgin olive oil. I love the Kirkland Signature brand or Lucini Premium.
