Ingredients

6 large basil leaves
3 medium tomatoes
1/2 pounds fresh mozzarella at room temperature, cut into 1/4-inch slices

Remove basil leaves from stems, rinse and pat dry. Slice basil with sharp knife or kitchen shears into small, even strips. Rinse, core, and slice tomatoes lengthwise into 1/4-inch slices.

Excellent! We used nice, ripe tomatoes and the best mozzarella we could get our hands on and sliced both about 1/2” slices. Our basil was fresh from a friends garden. Few things beat all that freshness!

This is a classic salad we love. (Great colors at Christmas.) You can add some Italian seasonings and it is perfect all year long.
