I love summer. I spend endless
days, with zero schedule, with my kids doing whatever they want. I love the
beach and the smell of the salt air mingled with seaweed and sand. Most of all,
I love summertime food. I cook according to the seasons, so in the summer, I
like to take advantage of tomatoes and avocados and all the fruit I could want.
Insalata caprese is one of my absolute favorite salads. Ever. Whenever my
husband and I eat out, I always order this salad to see how different chefs
have enhanced the simple flavors of ripe tomatoes, creamy buffalo mozzarella,
fragrant basil, olive oil and balsamic vinegar. It's so simple and so
delicious- the best of summer.
