Caprese Salad

Hello! I am back! I just finished up my third year of medical school with two months of the time consuming surgery rotation. I am currently studying for my boards. I went to the grocery store a couple weeks ago and they had mozzarella cheese on sale. Yay! This caprese salad is perfect for a hot summer day. It is a light snack and also so yummy.

Cooking time: 10 minutes

Ingredients: 
- 3 large tomatoes, sliced
- 8 ounces of mozzarella cheese, sliced
