Easy Caprese Stack

This summer, I'm vowing to spend less time in the kitchen and more time enjoying company at the table. Caprese salads are one of those dishes that I always order when I'm out, but for some reason never really make at home. The colours makes a perfect addition to a Christmas lunch table so I'm definitely finding a place for this in my festive foodie repertoire. So simple, you won't break a sweat preparing it. One of these stacks is probably good for two people to share or if you're serving a plated meal, serve half stacks per person. Easy peasy!
