That is exquisite looking. Caprese is a favorite of mine. Looks just as good as what I've had in Italy.
That's a beautiful salad! Nice presentation.
This is one of my favorite salads!

Looks great! Reminds me of all the freshness I found and loved in Italy. I definitely will be making this.
We also add artichoke hearts and use the marinade they come in in place of olive oil. Have to go through the chokes and remove the less chewable parts, though.
