Almost Caprese Salad

Who doesn’t love the simple and refreshing Caprese salad, tell me?

In this recipe, I’ve tried to reproduce the fresh taste of the salad, but gave it my own spin.

I’ve not added rocket or any salad leaves. I’ve used a mixture of Mozzarella and Cheddar cheeses and I’ve used Thai basil instead of Italian. And I loved it!
