Are you tired of all the sweets at Christmas time and around the holiday season? I hear ya! I mean don't get me wrong, love me some sweets but start to really crave more fresh during this time, and I am a lover of Caprese salad so I thought why not incorporate it into the holiday season too?

Wouldn't this be the cutest on that holiday spread giving a not so sweet option to those looking to eat a little healthier during the Christmas season? Or if anything it will give you a healthy side to that plate piled full of holiday goodness. Kinda equals it out? hahaha well, that is what I tell myself anyway!

Its so simple to put together! And when you put it on a nice wooden board really elevates your holiday spread! Can't you just see this nestled in with meats and cheese and all things charcuterie? OH YUM! Ok, here is how I did it!

Ingredients

Tomatoes ( i used Roma)

Fresh Mozzarella Cheese – (I used the pre sliced log)

Fresh Basil

Olive Oil -( I love the Basil and the Garlic infused but you can use regular too!) you can snag some infused oils * balsamic here- https://www.olivinotastingbar.com/?sca_ref=4084828.J9IDSVZCw7 they are my favorite! Not just great for this recipe but marinades, infusing water, mock-tails and more!

Balsamic Glaze – I love the pomegranate on this! Absolutely delicious! Again, you can find it here https://www.olivinotastingbar.com/?sca_ref=4084828.J9IDSVZCw7
