Oats Free Gluten Free Caprese Salad
Few dishes capture the spirit of summer eating quite like this classic Italian salad — ripe tomatoes, creamy fresh mozzarella, and fragrant basil leaves layered together on a platter and finished with a generous drizzle of good olive oil. The combination is simple, but when the ingredients are this fresh, simple is all you need. A finishing touch of balsamic glaze adds a subtle sweet tang that ties everything together beautifully. For anyone navigating grain or oat sensitivities, this is the kind of recipe that requires zero substitutions or label-checking — every ingredient here is naturally free of those concerns right out of the gate. Just slice, layer, drizzle, and serve. It's the kind of dish that looks impressive enough for a dinner party but comes together in minutes with almost no effort at all. Pair it with a chilled glass of white wine and good company, and you've got a perfect meal.
