Caprese Salad
Bright slices of ripe tomato and creamy mozzarella layered with fragrant basil and a glossy balsamic drizzle—simple ingredients that sing together. Serve slightly rested so the flavors meld and the olive oil softens the tomatoes.

8 oz fresh mozzarella, sliced 1/4-inch
½ cup basil leaves, packed
2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
2 tbsp balsamic glaze
