- 4 oz fresh mozzarella, sliced
- ¼ cup cup fresh basil, sliced thinly
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 2 Tbsp balsamic vinegar

Slice the tomatoes into ¼ - ½ inch pieces and sliver the basil. If not using pre-sliced mozzarella, slice it in ¼ - ½ inch pieces (to match the tomatoes).

Arrange a layer of tomatoes on a platter. Drizzle with half of the olive oil (2 Tbsp) and sprinkle with half of the salt (⅛ tsp) and one third of the slivered basil (1-2 Tbsp).
