This salad is DIVINE! Caprese salad has always been my favorite salad, but the addition of creamy avocado slices, puts this over the moon. The recipe does not call for basil, but I still like to add some basil strips to my salad. Also, to make this worth it, invest in quality ingredients-you won't be sorry.

I put a basil leaf on top of each one and drizzled lemon-infused oil over the top to give it a bit of a zest. So lovely and refreshing. A very nice way to start a meal.

This was quite yummy, but the avocados were out-of-place. I love avocados and will happily eat them any way they come. However, it is a shame to mar the brilliance of the fresh mozzarella and tomato- which is perfection on its own.

Very easy to prepare. I liked the addition of avocado as a twist to the caprese. I will do this a lot in the summer!

Loved it! While I agree the avocado flavor did get a little bit lost, I did very much enjoy the creaminess of it.

Insalata caprese is one of my favorites so I was intriqued by the idea of adding avocado. First, the presentation was beautiful and it was easy to prepare. That said, I agree with the other reviewer that the avocado "got lost" with the other flavors.

I used vine-ripened tomatoes as they have more flavor, and also garlic-infused olive oil. Absolutely delicious. Thanks!

This was a yummy salad, although the avocado, which I love, was kind of lost. Its delicate flavor was overwhelmed by the stronger tastes of the vinegar, tomato, and mozzarella. Also, if you're going to make this, you really can't skimp...you have to use high quality ingredients. As a result, this is a surprisingly expensive dish. This is very filling. My husband and I had it for dinner and it was more than enough to fill us. This would probably be fine to make 6 appetizers (one "stack" per person). Thanks for the recipe!

Perfect summer lunch! I like the addition of avocado to the traditional caprese salad. Used basil and parmesan cheese for garnish.

I regularly make this for lunch as it is very quick and easy. I like to serve it with fresh basil leaves on top.
