Coconut Free No-Cook Caprese Salad

Few dishes capture summer as effortlessly as a classic Caprese, and this version is as straightforward as it gets — no stove, no oven, just beautiful ingredients arranged on a platter. Ripe tomatoes and fresh mozzarella do the heavy lifting here, layered together with fragrant basil leaves and finished with a generous drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil. A scatter of flaky sea salt and cracked black pepper pulls everything into focus, and a touch of balsamic glaze adds a sweet, tangy depth if you're feeling it. The whole thing comes together in minutes, which makes it perfect for warm evenings when you want something impressive without breaking a sweat. Since every ingredient is naturally free of coconut in any form — no oils, no milk, no hidden derivatives — you can build this plate with total confidence. It's the kind of recipe that proves simple food, done well, needs absolutely nothing extra.
