6 or more large ripe tomatoes, sliced fairly thick
1 pound whole or part-skim milk mozzarella, sliced the same thickness as the tomatoes
A handful of fresh basil leaves, rinsed, patted dry, and minced
1/4 cup olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Preparation
Alternate the tomato and mozzarella slices on a large platter.
Sprinkle with the basil and drizzle with olive oil.
