Delicious Fresh Snack

Basil is our number one herb grower. I was at the Farmers Market last week and bought some gorgeous tomatoes and splurged on fresh, local cheese from Chapel Hill Creamery. I was hoping for some fresh mozzarella but unfortunately they only had smoked. Patrick and I had previously discovered this creamery on a local food tour (Taste Carolina) and had sampled some of their Farmers Cheese which is a basic, soft cheese and would be a fine substitute for the mozzarella.

We sliced up the tomatoes, drizzled with balsamic vinegar (Patrick's new fav ingredient for everything), sprinkled with freshly chopped basil, and placed a sliver of cheese atop each tomato!
