Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 8 oz fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced
- 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves
- 2 tablespoons balsamic glaze
Instructions
- Prepare the strawberries: Wash and hull the strawberries, then slice them into thin pieces to ensure even layering and balance of flavors.
- Slice the mozzarella: Cut the fresh mozzarella into even slices, approximately 1/4-inch thick, to complement the strawberry slices.
- Assemble the Caprese: On a serving platter, layer the sliced strawberries, mozzarella, and fresh basil leaves alternately, creating a visually appealing arrangement.
- Drizzle with balsamic glaze: Finish by drizzling the balsamic glaze evenly over the layered ingredients to add a tangy and sweet flavor.
Notes
- Use a high-quality balsamic glaze or reduce balsamic vinegar to make your own for the best flavor.
- Serve immediately to keep the fresh texture of strawberries and basil.
- This dish works well as an appetizer or a side salad for summer meals.
- To make it vegan, substitute the mozzarella with a plant-based cheese alternative.
