This yummy summer salad is so easy to make.
sliced tomatoes (any kind will do)
chunks or slices of whole milk mozzarella
fresh basil leaves
Italian dressing
--------------------------
I didn't have fresh basil leaves this year so the pics are without....I use Newman's Own Family Recipe Italian dressing (YUM!). You can make this early in the day and serve it up later...it's all the better.

I just made this the other day...before seeing your posting but this has always been one of my favorites. I had to use crushed dried basil but it was delicious! I love this blog but it´s also torturous since I can´t make 99% of the things on here! Wish I could come over for lunch or dinner!
