RE Friday Round-Up: Caprese Salad Served Many Ways
Caprese Salad is summer, to me.
Warm tomatoes fresh from the garden.
Trying to notice something new every day. The beautiful colors, shapes, the design of a tomato.
Noticing what food tastes like.
The fresh smells of the herb bed and an abundance of basil.
The sound of a gurgling bottle of balsamic, drizzled over a beautiful platter of Caprese Salad.
And then … hearing the sounds of your guests as they rave over the garden freshness.
Yes, summer is Caprese Salad.

What is your favorite way to serve Caprese Salad?
My mouth is literally watering. Caprese salad is one of my most favorite combinations of ingredients. I loved seeing all the unique twists on it!
All of these look great. I just posted a Caprese combination this morning. I think the skewers might be one of our favorites now. I love the burger idea!
Yummy. I love Caprese pasta salad. Happy Friday!
Yum!! Sandy all those look sooo delicious! I love caprese salad, it is one of my favorite dishes with basil…..

I love it with roasted tomatoes, aged balsamic, fruity olive oil, cracked pepper and homemade mozzarella from our favorite Italian deli. Just may be making this this weekend.
Have a great one!

I adore caprese salad! You’re right: summer in a bite! Our basil is just now recovering from a pretty severe cutting I did for a recipe…now for the tomatoes to hurry it up in our garden…you’ve got my mouth watering :-). Here’s my version: http://kristinsveranda.com/victuals/2011/07/29/caprese-salad-my-way/
I am actually am tomorrow night! I’m hosting a dinner party (of course a post will come from it) and the appie is the mini caprese skewers.
DE-FREAKING-LISH.
