Caprese Delight

Who knew salad could be a finger food?!

Made with these products from The Olive Press:

Ingredients:

  • 2 Tbsp The Olive Press Master Blend Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 4-6 Roma (plum) tomatoes
  • Fresh whole basil leaves
  • 1 package (8 oz.) fresh mozzarella cheese
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • The Olive Press Classic Balsamic Vinegar (for drizzling)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

  1. Combine Olive Oil, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper into a bowl with the mozzarella. Allow to marinate while tomatoes are being prepared.
  2. Cut 3-5 slices in each Roma tomato (be careful not to cut all the way through!)
  3. Slice marinated mozzarella in thin, half-moon pieces.
  4. Take a whole basil leaf and marinated Mozzarella and carefully insert into the cuts made in the tomato.
  5. Drizzle tomatoes with Classic Balsamic Vinegar and the remained of the marinade if desired.
  6. Enjoy!
