    Heirloom tomato's are coming into season (as I'm writing this) - this is a wonderful dish for summertime picnics or a light weekend lunch. Also a great appetizer for the family.

    Ingredients

    • 3 medium red heirloom tomatoes
    • 1/2 cup fresh basil
    • 2 cups mozzarella cheese, sliced 1/2 inch think
    • Balsamic wine vinegar
    • Olive Oil
    • Sea Salt and Pepper

    Directions

    1. Slice the top and bottom off each tomato so that it can "stand" by itself. Slice each tomato lengthwise; you should get about 4 slices from each one. Place all slices on a large plater or plate 3 slices on an appetizer plate for individual portions.
    2. Salt and pepper your tomato slices. Layer one slice of cheese over each tomato slice and top with a whole basil leaf.
    3. Drizzle olive oil and vinegar on top. Enjoy!
