Caprese Salad how I love thee!

I am kicking myself for not taking a picture of this easy masterpiece tonight, however, I served dinner on paper plates and I didn't want proof of my laziness! However, I just fessed up here, so I guess that's what I get for trying to hide it ;)

Anyway, somewhere, somehow, in a magazine had a picture of caprese salad on toast. (I thought it was better homes and gardens, but couldn't find it when I looked for it, so mystery is unsolved)
It looked so tasty so I picked up the ingredients today and made the delectable treat for a quick easy and fairly healthy dinner!

Mozzarella balls, tomato, Turano Italian bread slices, fresh basil (fresh is key, it makes the flavors pop!), olive oil and salt.

Toast the bread, slice the mozzarella and the tomatoes. When the toast comes out, drizzle then spread some olive oil on the bread, lay the tomato and mozzarella slices, then add the basil. (I chop the basil because I prefer it that way.) Drizzle a tad more olive oil add some salt and ENJOY!

this was as close as I could get with a Google search. We ate our's open faced though! DELISH!
