I rushed home from work last night due to the imminent threat of Typhoon Anemone, which was zoning in on Shanghai last night... Found myself at home with little to eat since I have not been to the market yet this week (sheer laziness, and also I had some leftover fresh produce from last week), and I wasn't really feeling the urge to cook anyways.
A light summer salad seemed like the meal of choice, and the fresh mozzarella cheese I had bought at the Avocado Lady's stand a few days ago beckoned to me from the fridge. Summer is the season of succulent, vine-ripe tomatos, and my basil plant has been yielding some fresh, fragrant leaves recently that I just have to make use of! A caprese salad seemed like a no-brainer!
