Tomato with Mozzarella Cheese and Basil Salad


This is definetly my favorite Salad and is a delicious summery dish!


2 tablespoon good quality extra-virgin olive oil


3 - 5 tablespoons balsamic vinegar


2 large vine-ripened tomatoes, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices (we like Roma tomatoes)


1/4 pound fresh mozzarella cheese cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices (mozzarella balls and disks work great as well)


6 to 8 large fresh basil leaves, sliced thin


salt to taste


Layer the bottom of a plate or bowl with mozzarella cheese and add the tomatoes.


Top with basil leaves
.
Drizzle with olive oil and balsamic vinegar and add salt to taste.
