Caprese Salad

1 Organic beef tomato

Fresh basil (5 leaves)

Buffalo Mozzarella

Balsamic glaze

Salt

Fresh ground pepper

Rinse basil and tomato. Cut three leaves from the stalk of basil. Set aside. Take one separate large basil leaf and cut into slivers. Set that aside. Slice mozzarella into three slices, 1/4 - 1/2 inch thick. Set aside. Cut off the top and bottom of the tomato and discard. Slice tomato into four slices,  Sprinkle salt and pepper on each slice, seasoning to taste. Set aside. On a plate, drizzle balsamic glaze in a pattern of your choosing. Stack tomato, mozzarella slice,  and a basil leaf, drizzling balsamic glaze on top. Repeat two times until you have a tower. On top, sprinkle the slivered basil. This can be served with a sliced french baguette or enjoyed alone.
