    I dont think theres a better way to enjoy summer tomatoes, than with some fresh mozzarella and basil. An inspiration for so many dishes, like this main dish Chicken and Spiralized Zucchini Caprese, or this simple side dish White Bean Caprese, or this French Bread Pizza Caprese which is perfect for lunch.,Alt=,Insalata Caprese is a dish from Naples, named after the island of Capri. It makes sense that this dish comes from Naples, since it is the capital city of mozzarella and also known for growing plump tomatoes, fragrant basil and producing some of the best olive oil. When I went to Naples and Capri this year, I ate it every chance I could. There is a belief the salad was created as a symbol of the Italian flag, with the red, the green and the white elements layered in turn on the plate.,Summer Tomato Salad,Angel Hair Pasta with Zucchini and Tomatoes,Tomato Basil Soup,Pesto Parmesan Baked Tomatoes,Bruschetta with Tomato and Basil
