Due Formaggi Caprese Salad With Cucumbers

Ingredients
  

  • One Pickling Cucumber Washed & Peeled
  • 1/4 Romaine Lettuce Washed, and cut up
  • 8 Large Basil Leaves Washed, And Cut
  • Three Small Fresh Mozzarella Balls - Cut into multiple pieces
  • 2 Tbsp Freshly Chunked Gorgonzola
  • 1/4 Cup Fresh Sauteed Peppers grilled peppers
  • 1 Roma Tomato Sliced Thin
  • 3 Tbsp Crouton Crumble
  • 1 Tsp of Freshly Milled Pepper Optional

Instructions
 

  • Grab your favorite dinner plate, slice those cucumbers thin, add to plate.
  • Now add your tomatoes, but cut half them, rather than leaving round slices.
  • Place your Peppers on the plate and spread them across a section of the plate.
  • The middle of the plate should be free of anything as you can see in my photo.
  • Mix the basil and romaine together and make sure it is all bite size.
  • Sprinkle the Gorgonzola Across the Romaine and Basil
  • Add the Crouton Crumble
  • Add the Freshly Milled Pepper if you chose to add this
  • If you are eating this yourself, feel free to mix these items all around. I would also suggest if you are serving this, once it makes its appearance to go ahead and mix it up as the pepper juice creates a fabulous natural flavor.
