Caprese Salad - cooking recipe

Ingredients

4 medium tomatoes (about 1.25 lbs, washed and cored)
1/2 lb fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced thinly
5 basil leaves (stacked neatly, rolled into a cylinder n cut into thin ribbons)
2 -3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
salt and pepper
balsamic vinegar (optional)

Preparation

Cut tomatoes into 1/4-in. slices and arrange on a plate, alternating tomatoes with mozzarella slices.
Scatter basil ribbons over the tomatoes and mozzarella.
Drizzle with olive oil and season to taste with salt and pepper.
NOTE: I would add a bit of balsamic vinegar when I serve it on my plate because it's like the one at Macaroni and Grill.
