Caprese Salad Recipe originates from the beautiful sun-kissed Mediterranean Island of Capri, although, some areas of Italy, have claimed it as their own recipe in recent years.

Just follow these step by step instructions and you will be amazed how easy it is to produce a stunning salad. We often have it for lunch...especially when we want something quick...we always have these typical Mediterranean Diet ingredients either in the fridge or garden.

  3. Garnish the whole salad with fresh basil leaves.
  4. Grind over some black pepper.
  5. Evenly spoon over the olive oil and vinegar or Vinaigrette Dressing.
