Caprese Salad
(Serves 4-6)
Don’t be jealous any longer! Now you can make a delicious dairy-free version of the famous Italian tri-color salad of sliced tomato, basil and mozzarella. This makes a beautiful appetizer when paired with crackers or toasted bread rounds, or serve as a full meal with chunks of a good quality artisan bread.
Ingredients:
4 large ripe tomatoes, sliced into ¼” thick rounds
2 containers Vegan Cow brand Mockstarella Cheese, cut into ¼” thick slices
½ cup fresh basil leaves
3-4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons capers, drained (optional)
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Directions:
- On a large platter or on individual plates, in a circular design starting from the outer edge of the plate, alternate and overlap the tomato slices, Mockstarella slices, and fresh basil leaves.
- Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with capers, if using, and season to taste with sea salt and pepper.
