Caprese Wreath

Caprese Wreath 🌿 because life is too short not to celebrate with cheese. Perfect for a large gathering. You can also make a smaller version. The key to making a beautiful Caprese wreath is to double down on the basil. Load up or steal it from your neighbor’s garden. Just kidding - ask. You want a beautiful bed of basil. Top it with Mozzarella and tomatoes. Drizzle with quality olive oil, @maldonsalt flake salt, and black pepper. Serve balsamic on the side. Scroll down for the recipe.
