Tomato Basil and Mozzarella Salad

We had this as an appetizer at an Italian restaurant we went to a couple years ago. It was spectacular! They served it with a basil pesto to dip the tomatoes and mozzarella and bread into. Well, since we don't eat much bread around here, I prefer to make it this way. We love it, especially on hot summer days when I don't want to turn on the oven!

Tomato Basil and Mozzarella Salad

Ingredients:

• 4-6 medium sized tomatoes (I prefer Roma tomatoes.)
• 1 lb mozzarella cheese (At Wal-mart, I buy the pre-sliced block of it for about $5, but you can probably find it for cheaper outside of California!)
• 1/4 cup shredded fresh basil leaves ( You could use dried, but you'd be missing out on great flavor!)
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• salt, pepper and garlic salt to taste

Slice tomatoes and layer them with slices of mozzarella on a serving dish. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and garlic salt. Sprinkle with fresh shredded basil. Drizzle with olive oil and serve! Serves 4-6 (about one tomato per person, but JayC and I eat this all by ourselves. :)
