Easy, yummy, loved by all. What else is there to say?
My sister has made this for years! It really is an impressive dish. Beautiful colors and textures. Very refreshing!
Oooooh that was good! Be sure to buy good quality tomatoes from a local Farmer's Market if possible. Quality makes all the difference! I accidentally used 1/3 cup honey, but it was fantastic anyway!
I usually drizzle balsamic on my caprese salad. Such a nice twist!! Everyone loved this..

Taste a creamy, inspired version of the classic tomato salad.
This delicious update of the Italian salad adds fresh spinach.
