Avocado Tomato And Mozzarella Caprese Salad Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

If you like traditional italian insalata caprese, try this similar avocado caprese salad with fresh mozzarella cheese, fresh basil, and ripe red tomatoes, and the addition of avocados for extra flavor. This avocado caprese salad is often referred to as an italian "Tricolore" Salad since it has the three colors of the italian flag: red tomatoes, white mozzarella and green avocados and basil. You'll love the flavors of avocado with just a bit of sea salt and fresh cracked black pepper, but you can also make this salad drizzled with a bit of honey as a variation. Try it both ways and see which you prefer. At any rate, the ingredients themselves are always delicious when combined together. Who doesn't love fresh avocado, mozzarella, and fresh basil? Yum. This mozzarella, tomato, avocado and basil salad recipe is courtesy of avocados from mexico.
