Fresh tomatoes are the best. Maybe you have noticed over the last few days that I love ripe summer tomatoes. No, really?
Caprese salad is so easy. Slice tomatoes and a ball of fresh mozzarella and alternate them on the plate. I like to sprinkle with a little fresh basil, a few greek olives, and a drizzle of olive oil.
When I want it to be really awesome I add cilantro pecan pesto. If you haven’t made your own pesto, you should. It is easy, inexpensive, and there is nothing like it.
