Ingredients
- Sliced tomatoes, about 4 in number,
- Halved and sliced onion, just one,
- A quarter cup of fresh basil leaves, to your liking,
- A generous half cup of shredded mozzarella cheese.
- For the dressing:
- Two tablespoons of olive oil,
- A tablespoon of lemon juice,
- A quarter teaspoon of oregano,
- Season with salt and pepper as per your taste.
Step 1
Begin by artfully arranging slices of fresh, ripe tomatoes in a circular pattern on a plate, allowing them to overlap slightly. Nestle halved onion slices and fragrant basil leaves amongst the tomatoes to create a visually appealing display. In the center of the plate, heap a generous portion of shredded mozzarella cheese, ready to mingle with the other flavors.
Step 2
Next, in a separate bowl, combine the flavors of olive oil, zesty lemon juice, aromatic oregano, a pinch of salt, and a dash of black pepper. Whisk everything together until the ingredients harmonize into a flavorful dressing. Finally, drizzle this vibrant mixture over the tomatoes, ensuring each slice gets a taste of the delicious dressing.
Extra Tips & Suggestions
- 1. Embrace the beauty of mason jars - Store your freshly chopped tomatoes and basil in separate mason jars for a charming and organized look in your fridge.
- 2. Keep it crisp with a veggie saver - Invest in a vegetable saver container to keep your basil leaves looking fresh and vibrant for longer.
