Mozzarella Caprese Salad
Fresh Tomatoes
Mozzarella
Capers
Fresh Basil
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper
Can't get much easier than that huh!? We had a few fresh grape tomatoes that I threw in there, they were so much sweeter than the store bought Roma's. As you can see from the picture, just layer slices of tomato and mozzarella cheese, load on the fresh basil, capers and salt and pepper, then drizzle the whole thing with good quality extra virgin olive oil... perfection!
Before trying this chicken salad recipe, it had been years since I'd eaten anything with Tarragon, and it wasn't a happy experience, so I was pretty learey of giving it a go again. Well, I'm so glad I got over it and made the Tarragon Chicken Salad, that comes from You'veGotSupper.com. I've made it enough times now that I don't actually follow the recipe, I just know that I add a ton more of all the good stuff than it calls for. I used some of the left over chicken from my Chicken Noodle Soup, which is perfect for this salad. I don't know about anyone else, but it's just about imposible to find red grapes this season, and the few times I did they were terrible. I was worried that the green grapes wouldn't be as good, but surprisingly they were perfect. I do miss the color that the red grapes offered the dish, but taste wise it was right on! I was having a hard time not just eating this stuff straight out of the bowl, I have a feeling it will be gone by tomorrow!
