Mediterranean Diet Friendly Tomato Mozzarella Basil Salad

Ripe, juicy tomatoes and creamy mozzarella slices come together in this classic caprese-style platter, layered with torn basil leaves for a burst of freshness in every bite. A simple whisked dressing of extra-virgin olive oil and red wine vinegar ties it all together, letting the quality of each ingredient shine through. Finished with flaky sea salt and a crack of black pepper, this dish is all about texture and simplicity — silky cheese, tender tomato, and fragrant herbs on one plate. It comes together in minutes and needs no cooking at all, making it an easy go-to for warm-weather meals or a light starter. With olive oil front and center and produce doing all the heavy lifting, this salad is a natural fit for anyone following a Mediterranean-style way of eating. Serve it as-is with good bread on the side, or alongside grilled vegetables for a complete spread.
