If you are looking for a satisfying yet original “salad”, then you need to sink your teeth into a caprese salad. This is no ordinary caprese salad though. Typically caprese salad is just fresh mozzarella with some fresh tomatoes, fresh basil and a little olive oil. Boring! Is it tasty? Sure, but it’s also mundane and done by hundreds of restaurants around the world.
The caprese salad I have in mind has a little bit of balsamic which is a little sweet and a little tart. The flavors are then brought together with the butteriness of fresh avocados. Not only do the avocados add flavor to the tomatoes and fresh mozz, the bright green color really makes this dish pop and nearly poke your eye out.
