Simple Summer Caprese Salad [Vegan]

Ingredients

  • 1-2 fresh tomatoes
  • 1 package of vegan mozzarella cheese
  • 5-6 fresh basil leaves, chopped
  • Salt & black pepper to taste

Preparation

  1. Slice the tomatoes by cutting the top off and then slicing horizontally. Slice as thin or thick as you prefer! Halve the tomato slices into bite-sized portions. Place each slice onto a plate and sprinkle with sea salt to enhance the flavor.
  2. Take the vegan mozzarella wheel out of the package and make a horizontal slice so that the depth of each bite is thinner. The cheese can then be cut into bite-sized slices or cut with a cookie cutter for a beautiful display. Place each slice on top of the tomatoes.
  3. Finally, chop the fresh basil and sprinkle over top with some black pepper and you’re done. Optionally, you can drizzle some balsamic vinegar or a drizzle of good olive oil. This appetizer also goes great on top of baby arugula to give it more of a salad vibe.
