A little late in the day, but I am soooooo glad to be part of this weeks Tuesday at the Table hosted by Cole of All the Small Stuff! Go visit Cole as she is having an awesome giveaway AND is planning more for later in the month!
Today and next Tuesday I am featuring an easy dinner for one! My DH was out of pocket this past Saturday and I had fun making this Quick and Easy Caprese with Smoked Mozzarella Salad.Look for my easy Pizza for One next Tuesday!
I am a "little bit of this" and little bit of that" cook, so please adjust everything to taste! This is a twist on traditional Caprese that I put together.

I love caprese, especially with heirloom tomatoes. Sometimes I use burrata. Unfortunately it is the end of the summer tomatoes. :(
