Serves 2 as a meal or 4 as an appetizer
When the garden is overflowing with tomatoes and basil, make this twist on the classic caprese. This is a perfect no-cook summer meal for two, served with crusty bread or a colorful late-summer appetizer. It’s also the perfect time to splurge on the best imported San Daniele Prosciutto.

- 1/2 cup basil pesto*
- 1 Tbsp Metropolitan Market Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 1 Tbsp white wine vinegar
- 2 medium heirloom tomatoes, cored and sliced into rounds
- 1 ball Metropolitan Market fresh mozzarella, sliced into rounds

- Flaky sea salt
Directions:
- In a small bowl, stir together pesto, olive oil, vinegar, and 1 Tbsp water.
- Arrange tomato, mozzarella, and basil leaves on a platter in a circular pattern, overlapping slices, and leaving the center open. Tuck prosciutto slices into the center.
- Drizzle pesto vinaigrette over tomatoes and mozzarella and season with salt.
