Caprese Salad

Comments
This recipe is from Chez Us.  It’s basically a chopped up version of Caprese and it’s as scrumptious as the original.  I know the mozzarella measurement is very imprecise but it will really depend on personal taste and what quantities you buy fresh mozzarella in.  If you buy 12 ounce balls, use one.  If you can only get 6 ounce balls, you might want to use two.  This was really awesome, especially with how much I’ve been craving summer tomato season.  I gobbled up the leftovers and the guys probably never even knew what happened to them.  I could eat tomatoes like this for every meal!
