Strawberry Pesto Caprese Salad

Share

Before strawberry season passes, you must make this simple beauty of a salad. I’ll admit, our local coop makes an amazing pesto with cashews and pine nuts that I can’t quite recreate at home so I use it as our house pesto. Go ahead and use your favorite too! Take that semi-homemade theme and run with. I like to trim the top off the strawberries, then slice them horizontally to make a round shape that mimics the mozzarella. It makes for the perfect bite.

There are only three ingredients to this tomato-less caprese: sweet and juicy California Giant Strawberries, fresh mozzarella, and that herbalicious coating. The combination is stellar, and perfect for sharing at an outdoor barbecue, pool party, or a cabin getaway. Healthy snacking never looked so good.
