Caprese salad is a classic Italian salad made with alternating slices of juicy, ripe tomatoes, and creamy mozzarella. It’s topped with fresh basil leaves, drizzled with olive oil and balsamic vinegar, and sprinkled with salt and pepper. It’s simple, fresh, and one of my favorite summer salad recipes.
Caprese salad (also known as insalata caprese) is a classic dish from the Italian island of Capri.
