Tomato Basil Mozarella Salad (Recipe for Caprese Salad)

Roma tomatoes are a meaty tomato that has a sweet taste to them. Fresh mozzarella is soft and full of milky texture. Basil helps to sweeten the salad up. And topped with both oil and balsamic glaze, your keto Caprese salad comes together both beautiful to look at and ripe with flavors that blend and complement one another perfectly.

Roma tomatoes - smaller round tomatoes on a vine will also work. The key is to cut tomatoes the same size as the mozzarella. You can also use cherry tomatoes if you use fresh mozzarella balls instead of slices.

Fresh Mozzarella - comes in a container with liquid to keep it moist, often in a log shape, large ball, or in small bite-sized balls.

Extra virgin olive oil

Balsamic glaze- a thicker syrup-like balsamic sauce, balsamic vinegar can also be substituted.

Fresh basil leaves - substituting dried basil is not recommended, fresh is best!

Salt and pepper - we always use fine sea salt or pink Himalayan salt and ground black pepper.
