Plum Basil Caprese Salad

Oh cheese, how you stand up so wonderfully just like bread! When did we decide bread was the only thing that could hold meat, veggies, and condiments together, anyway? These simple yet scrumptious little plum basil Caprese salad sandwiches hit the spot.

I’m obsessed with the plum balsamic vinegar from Ariston Olive Oil. (No they didn’t pay me to say that). Paired with basil (or their basil oil!), it’s the most fantastic combo on the planet. Plum + basil = love, you guys. Sure, it has 11 grams of carbohydrates in a tablespoon, but all you need is a drop for these tiny sandwiches so even if you made twenty you wouldn’t reach a tablespoon. If you don’t have plum balsamic, you can certainly use regular balsamic.
