Caprese

There is nothing better than fresh vine-ripened tomatoes.  Yesterday we escaped the heat and headed to the coast (where it was 30 degrees cooler!) and ended up in Cambria just in time for their Farmer's Market.  I bought beautiful red and yellow tomatoes and fresh basil.  Stopped off at Trader Joe's on the way home and picked up some fresh mozzarella so I could make Caprese.

Thick slices of tomatoes are topped with a little salt and then slices of fresh mozzarella.  Then drizzle with a little olive oil and some good balsamic vinegar.  Lastly, sprinkle on ribbons of fresh basil.  So good!
