Tasty Italian Treat

You thought... Gelato??? No, this is a nice and healthy treat. A lovely appetizer/salad/gourmet treat made in honour of the Italian Flag!

I call it the Tomato-Bocconcini-Basil Salad.

Here's what you'll need. About 3 or 4 gorgeous red, ripe tomatoes. Some fresh bocconcini cheese and some fresh basil. Some good extra virgin olive oil, some good balsamic vinegar and some salt and pepper to taste.

Slice your cheese, tomatoes and basil into delightful pieces. Arrange them as you wish on your serving plate. I made a pretty flower... see!

Then sprinkle the basil on top as well as the olive oil and vinegar, salt and pepper. And there you have it! A tasty Italian treat using the summer's best tomatoes!
