As I rushed around getting things done today I realized I needed to feed my children lunch. duh. After baking them a quick pizza I spied a couple ripe romas on the counter. Those ripe beauties needed to be eaten soon, and my basil plant is producing more than I can use. I need to make some pesto (but that's a different post). What better way to use fresh summer tomatoes and basil than to make Insalata Caprese! Simply slice your tomatoes, chunk up some mozarella (fresh would be awesome, but I used what I had). Spread some fresh basil about. Drizzle with some extra virgin olive oil, a little salt and fresh ground black pepper. If you have capers they would be a nice addition.
