GPAC Best Caprese Salad

I LOVE caprese salads. LOVE. This is how I love them best. Actually my whole family loves this salad, and who doesn't love buttery avocado? NOM NOM. I can not wait until summer for gorgeous tomatoes. I can't seem to grow anything though! How about you? Do you have a garden in the summer?


Tomatoes- slices or chopped, I don't prefer cherry or grape tomatoes
Fresh mozzarella
Basil leaves
Avocado
Fresh cracked pepper
Olive oil
Balsamic vinegar- reduced or not depending on time

Slice the cheese, tomato, and avocado. Assemble like shown, or chop everything and toss like the picture below. Drizzle with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Sprinkle some fresh cracked pepper, salt, and basil leaves on top.



Sometimes I just chop it all up...

    I can't wait until our tomatoes come in season around here. You have managed to make my mouth water already this morning.
