CAPRESE SALAD
My husband and I love Caprese salad, but not the high prices we pay for it in restaurants. Here, we created our own version which tastes incredibly close, if not better, than any restaurant version we've tried. -Melissa Pearson, Sandy, Utah

Steps:
- Mix all ingredients together and set on counter stirring occasionally.
- The salt will bring out the juice of the tomatoes.
- Taste and add more seasonings to your personal taste.
- You can use fresh basil or oregano if preferred, just remember to chopped finely and use a little less than dried.
- USES: Serve with almost any meal as a side.
- On top of a green salad (no dressing necessary!).
- Use as a topping for bruschetta--just chop tomatoes instead of slicing.
- Use for caprese salad--add sliced buffalo mozzarella and you're done.
- have some leftover juice: place some sliced chicken breasts and marinate over night, then carefully remove the chicken and quickly sauté them until done. Add remaining juice and tomatoes, boil for 1-2 minutes and then add cooked penne pasta, toss, and simmer for 5-6 minutes.
- JUICE USES: **you can reuse the "marinade" with new tomatoes. Just add some more sliced tomatoes to the juice and let sit for about 20 minutes.
- OR use the juice and marinate boneless chicken breast overnight in refrigerator, grill and serve or slice chicken and top a Caesar salad with it.

CAPRESE SALAD
"Salad of Capri" is a wonderful yet simple salad made by layering seasonal tomatoes, fresh mozzarella and basil leaves. It is traditionally flavored with fine olive oil and a little salt to preserve the pure flavors of its fresh ingredients (my personal favorite). You can also use a lite balsamic vinaigrette instead. Either way, finish with a drizzle of balsamic glaze. You will be amazed with the magic balsamic glaze brings to this dish.

Steps:
- Core and cut tomatoes vertically into 1/4 inches' thick slices. If not pre-sliced, cut fresh mozzarella into 18 equal slices.
- Assemble (using the largest diameter slices first), place one slice of tomatoes on each plate followed by a slice of mozzarella and a basil leaf. Repeat, by adding another slice of tomatoes, a basil leaf and another slice of cheese, basil and tomatoes, etc.
- Spoon a light coating of olive oil and very lightly salt. Finish with healthy drizzle of balsamic glaze.
- Important, use fresh mozzarella in brine sold either at the deli counter or in vacuum sealed packages. Fresh mozzarella is not the same as "Buffalo Mozzarella". True Italian Buffalo Mozzarella is traditionally made from buffalo milk. It is sold as "Mozzarella di Bufala Campana" and is certified and protected. It is also welcomed in this salad.

- To make the marinade, in a small bowl or jar, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic, chopped basil, onion powder, dried oregano, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper.
- In a large bowl, add your sliced tomatoes and mozzarella balls and drizzle the olive oil mixture over top. Toss together until everything is coated, cover with plastic wrap and let everything marinate in the fridge for up to 2 hours or overnight (see notes for best marinating time).
- When ready to serve, take the salad out of the fridge about 30 minutes to an hour before so that the olive oil can come back to room temperature and return to liquid form. Add a little more fresh basil and season as needed right before serving. Enjoy!
