Made this for one! It was fabulous with homegrown tomato and freshly picked basil! Caprese represents summer to me and this is very delicous! I did not use the capers because I do not care for them! Thanks for posting! This was great! Made for Home Garden and Farmer's Market Event in the Photo Forum!

I?m ?originally from Texas, but now live in Florida. Still gotta have that spice though....love chipotle peppers, habaneros, and jalapenos. This is a picture of myself & my 2 daughters taken in Dec'06. I am working on my graduate degree, & still work as a nurse prn. When I'm not cooking and eating what I cook... I head for the gym to work out. As far as cookbooks, I love the church/ community cookbooks, where someone has dug out old handwritten recipes by granny and shared them with others-those are the best kind. If I had a month off, I'd for sure go hiking, would love to visit Australia and New Zealand.?
