Perfect Caprese Salad

My recipes are low carb paleo: fresh,healthy, whole food ingredients with very few starches, no sugars, no vegetable oils. The health of my spouse and myself has improved dramatically eating this way.

The Caprese salad of course has its roots in Italy and was birthed during the 1920s. A chef at Hotel Quisisana post-WWI wanted to pay tribute to everything that was Italy, including its country’s colors, and invented the Caprese salad.

3 pounds assorted tomatoes cut into bite-size pieces

1- pound buffalo mozzarella cut into bite-size pieces

2 teaspoons dry oregano
