Simple Caprese salad


This is probably my all time favorite salad... Seriously! Sometimes the simplest things in life are the best! Everything is so fresh and bright. It goes great with some crusty bread too! If you are not familiar with heirloom tomatoes, you should get aquainted!!! Everyone knows how good red tomatoes are for you, but the other colors add a mix of anti-oxidents and vitamins that you can't get from regular tomatoes alone. I got these tomatoes at Trader Joes, they are small cherry heirloom tomatoes. But regular ones work too, you just have to dice them up a little bit more.

Ingredients:
Mixed Heirloom tomatoes
Fresh mozzerella
Kalamata olives
Basil
Olive oil
Balsamic vinigar
Sea salt & pepper
