CAPRESE SALAD WITH BALSAMIC VINAIGRETTE - Tasty Thursday

I could live on caprese salads all year long. Farm fresh tomatoes, fresh basil & a wonderful balsamic vinaigrette that everyone who tastes it adores.

I honestly believe that this vinegar, or any other finer quality vinegar adds to the recipe. Sometimes it doesn’t matter… but when eating it straight up – it does!

Make 2 serving. Adapted by Aura

-1 big tomatoe

-1 Mozzarella ball

- bunch of Basil leaves

Ingredients for the balsamic vinaigrette:

1/4 cup or so of balsamic vinegar

1/8 cup of extra virgin olive oil

1 teaspoon of dijon mustard

Salt & pepper

Dash of red pepper flakes

1 garlic cloves, smashed and finely chopped

Directions:

Whisk together all the ingredients for the vinaigrette. Cut into round slices tomatoes, mozzarella. In between each slices put a basil leaf. Then put the vinaigrette on the top of your tomatoes/mozzarella sliced and basil leaves. I also add for a crunch effect, sesame seeds black & white as well as sunflower seeds.

This a good M3 to combine with grilled chicken fillet, salmon... or to top on a cereals toasted bread.

M5 to combine with grilled meat, or a soup.
