-Tomato Caprese-

#lemon8diarychallenge

-chopped vine tomatoes, or any tomatoes of your choice . The small vine cherry tomatoes are my fav.

-chopped purple onion

-mozzarella balls

-salt

-pepper

-fresh basil leaves I used the fresh one that you can buy in soil, or the prepackaged one is good as well.

-balsamic glaze

This is one dish from when I use to work at red lobster that I cannot get over . It’s so good ! It’s great in a bowl or on top of some sour dough bread toasted with a drizzle of olive oil, or French baguette is good as well.

Hope this dish can inspire someone if you haven’t had this it’s an ⭐️Overall rating: 5/5 for me. To my non tomato lovers I can’t relate 🤣🫶🏾🍅🥫Uptown
