Insalata Tricolore

Sliced beefsteak tomatoes are topped with avocado slices and fresh mozzarella, then drizzled with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. When I was in Italy, I ate this as much as possible. It's so easy and so delicious. Perfect as a starter for entertaining or a simple lunch. Have some ciabatta bread and olive oil on the side for dipping.
