Lupin Free Classic Caprese Salad

Few dishes capture summer on a plate quite like this one — ripe tomatoes, creamy fresh mozzarella, and fragrant basil leaves layered together in a way that looks almost too pretty to eat. A generous drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil and a pinch of flaky sea salt are all it really takes to make those flavors sing, though a touch of balsamic glaze adds a sweet, tangy finish that's hard to resist. The whole thing comes together in minutes with nothing more than a sharp knife and a serving platter. Lupin is a legume-derived ingredient that quietly shows up in pasta, flour blends, and even some salad dressings, making it a surprisingly tricky one to avoid when eating out or grabbing something pre-made. This recipe sidesteps all of that entirely — every ingredient here is straightforward and naturally free of that concern, so there's no label-scanning required. Fresh produce, quality dairy, and good olive oil are doing all the heavy lifting. It's the kind of dish that proves simple ingredients, treated well, never need a workaround.
