Taking "Ten Amazing Foods" one step further!!

I'm on a bit of a recipe kick right now, so for ten Wednesdays I'll give you a healthy recipe,  one for each of the "10 Amazing Foods" from the March 30th post.

The third on my list of amazing foods is tomatoes and the recipe to go with it is my daughter's favourite:

Caprese Salad

- An assortment of fresh tomatoes, cut into 1/4 inch slices
- Fresh mozzarella cheese, (preferably Buffalo mozzarella), drained and cut into 1/4 inch slices
- Big bunch of basil
- Extra virgin olive oil
- Freshly ground salt and pepper

On a large serving platter or individual salad plates, layer alternating slices of  the tomatoes and mozzarella, adding a basil leaf between each.  Drizzle the salad with the extra-virgin olive oil and season with salt and pepper, to taste.  This salad should be at  room temperature when served.
