Cherry Tomatoes Caprese Style


This is such an quick and simple salad to prepare. 
Ingredients:
Cherry Tomatoes
Fresh Mozzarella Cheese
Basil
Directions:
Wash tomatoes, cut mozzarella into bite size pieces and chiffonade the basil. Drizzle with olive oil and add some fresh cracked pepper and you have such a wonder fresh tasting salad.
I used a garlic infused olive oil that is locally produced.

Chiffonade is a cooking technique in which herbs or leafy green vegetables ( such as spinach and basil) are cut into long, thin strips. Chiffonade (pronounced chef-fon-nahd)


1. Rise and throughly dry leaves
2. Stack leaves
3. Roll Leaves into tight bundle
4. Cut into thin slices which will make pretty ribbons
5. Use chiffonade for a garnish or to add flavor to a dish
