Caprese Salad

This Caprese salad is fresh, healthy, and simple. I keep all these ingredients on hand to throw together for when I feel peckish but don't want to make anything elaborate. In only 3 minutes you have a great snack or appetizer.

Ingredients:

• Fresh basil

• Baby tomatoes 🍅 , halved if you prefer

• Fresh mozzarella (I use Trader Joe's marinated mozzarella pearls)

• Splash of balsamic vinegar

• A drizzle of extra virgin olive oil

• Chili 🌶 flakes (optional)

• Rough salt and fresh black pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Chop basil and pull apart mozzarella pearls. Combine all ingredients then season as desired.

2. Serve immediately. Enjoy!
