Refreshing Insalata Caprese


Insalata Caprese is a rustic Italian salad made with fresh mozzarella, basil, olive oil, and tomatoes. For this recipe, I'd added some slow-roasted tomatoes and seasoned lightly with some lemon juice. A very refreshing salad and it's a perfect starter to any main meal.

  2. I love a salad where there's more tomato and cheese than green stuff :) Right up my street!
