Caprese Salad

I traveled to Madison, WI last weekend (the weekend before labor day) to see a good friend of mine. We spent some time there relaxing, walking, and gardening.

Kristin's friend Nina, who resides in Madison, participates in a community garden effort. While we were there Kristin and I helped with picking some of the vegetables. Namely, tomatoes. Since there was an abundance of tomatoes and basil, I suggested we stop on our way back home and buy some mozzarella cheese to make caprese salad.

All you need to make caprese salad is: tomatoes, basil, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Arrange as seen below.

I am in Italy this week, and when I return will have some updates on Italian food including Italian wedding meals, gelato, and cheesy bread.
