Summertime is the best time for fresh tomatoes. Going to your local farmers' market can be a treasure trove of different tomato varieties. Try them all in this version of Caprese Salad! If you don't have enough tomatoes, serve this over a bed of lettuce.

How To Make heirloom caprese salad

1
Halve cherry tomates, then toss them with 1 Tbsp. oil in a small bowl; season with salt.

2
Arrange tomato wedges on a platter, slightly overlapping; season generously with salt. Tear cheese into small pieces and arrange them over tomatoes.
3
Spoon cherry tomatoes over the top and drizzle with most of the oil; season with pepper. Let stand 30 minutes to let flavors meld and release juices from tomatoes and mozzarella.
4
Top salad with basil and additional salt and oil, if desired. Serve with bread.
