Peach Caprese

Have you ever considered adding peaches to tomatoes in a traditional caprese salad?? Sometimes creating an entirely new dish is really very simple! When thinking of new ways to incorporate peach into my menu, I thought of a staple in our home - caprese! (especially during the summer months)  It turns out that adding a sweet twist to this dish is just what it needs to make it anything but ordinary.

Servings: 2
Serving Size: 1/2 of recipe
Points Plus: 3pp
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: n/a
Level of Difficulty: Easy
Ingredients
4 thick slices of fresh, ripe tomato
4 thick slices of fresh, ripe peach skin on
2 oz fresh Motzarella cheese, cut into four equal slices
4 basil leaves
1 T olive oil
Kosher salt + pepper to taste

Directions
Another simple dish!  Get out a pretty platter and layer the tomato, peach and cheese slices in a ring, as shown in the photo above. Insert the basil leaves evenly in dish. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Tip
The possibilities are endless as far as what ELSE you could sub in to this salad.  Mango, pineapple or regular apple would be interesting to try!
