Tag Archives: mozarella It’s funny how autumn seems to have sneaked up on us without us being here. When we left the country only four weeks ago it was still middle of summer. Bright and hard light, but now that we’ve come back the light is all of a sudden so much softer and has that autumn quality...

It might have taken a few seconds to assemble, but this is a meal fit for a king…… [Reply]

I like your simple lunch Simone! As for the weather…move here to Australia! LOL! It’s mostly warm all year round and our winters are nowhere near as cold as the European ones!… [Reply]

Ive been dreaming of Autumn since it last left…my favorite season of all! I too have said ITS ARRIVED without it even having a glimpse of arriving here in the South. I’m eating and decorating that way though. This is the perfect lunch!!! YUM! [Reply]

I love your photo, I could almost taste the crusty bread and the salty prosciutto.. [Reply]

This is such a beautiful simple lunch. I am so jealous of people that get to experience a true fall, it is our hottest time of the year here. [Reply]

Who can resist some good prosciutto and buffalo mozzarella! [Reply] 
Angela@spinachtiger - September 20, 2009 - 15:46
That is the kind of bite my husband thrives on. He can’t get enough mozzarella and basil. [Reply]

We ran away from the Northern US & snow (tired of staying home & shovelling) to the south. now we miss the snow so much esp. during the christmas time. Noting like fresh bread with home made pesto:-) [Reply]

[...] kind of lunch, although obviously you can spice any sandwich up to looks something like this or this… Just let your imagination run wild. But having pasta for lunch; I don’t know… it [...]

 Why is that the last days before you leave on a trip are always so hectic? And I don’t mean with packing stuff or arranging those last minute things. I’ve travelled enough that I have gotten quite efficient in the packing area, but for some reason people always want to all of a sudden meet,...

That looks like a wonderful fresh summer sandwich! my hubby hates moz. too:-D I like mine fresh just like this! [Reply]
Peter G - August 19, 2009 - 02:47
I don’t think you can improve on the simplicity of these flavours Simone. These are a perfect marriage! Have fun on your holiday. [Reply]

Simone, I have a little something for you over at my blog: http://bakeinparis.blogspot.com/2009/08/merci-jill.html Regards [Reply]

In the summer, I eat caprese salad almost once a week! Making a fresh sandwich variation is a good idea – a panini is also nice (although less appropriate for these summer days). That tiny stack is so cute! Hang in there, it’s the final stretch and soon you’ll be heading off for some well-deserved rest! [Reply] 
Reeni - August 19, 2009 - 16:59
So fresh and delicious – sounds wonderful with pesto! Have a wonderful vacation! [Reply]
FoodJunkie - August 19, 2009 - 19:44
Mozzarella, tomato and pesto is such a classic combo and yes, that little tower is a real sweetie! [Reply] 
Nicole (Sweetie Pie) - August 19, 2009 - 19:51
That is one of my favorite food combinations! Your sandwich certainly sounds delicious, and the photos are simply stunning– as always! I hope your travel goes well, and I hope that gizmo has a nice vacation too! [Reply] 
Megan@Feasting on Art - August 19, 2009 - 23:38
Oh the little tomato is so so cute! I used to make these for lunch. So wonderful and light. Beautiful photographs. [Reply]
Angela@spinachtiger - August 20, 2009 - 03:59
I have a recipe for a caprese lasagna, not hard, if you use store bought pasta. I did homemade to get color, but you could easily layer, cheese, thin tomato and pasta. Done. Sure, tuck in some basil. P.S. I even eat soup in the summer, so turning on the oven is something I’m known to do even in August. I’m not sure where you are flying to, but have a wonderful vacation. [Reply]

the photo of the stacked cherry tomato looks so fresh and awesome! [Reply]

I have seen a lot of caprese salad lately, but your is the best! Love the idea of serving on on bread. Bring on the carb! [Reply] 
Rosie - August 20, 2009 - 13:11
Simone, this looks so fresh and temptingly good! Have a lovely vacation and I’m sure Gizmo will be treated well while in their care [Reply]

So lovely… And impeccably fresh-looking! Enjoy your trip! I can’t wait to hear all about it when you return. [Reply]

my first visit, indeed, while we’re almost ‘exchanging’ greetings through flickr and food photography club. lovely photos as usual. isn’t it interesting that a small meal can be the real food, big on flavour! [Reply]

 I really felt like eating something healthy today. After a weekend full of unhealthy stuff… it was about time! I had spend the weekend going through my (enormous) pile of cooking magazines and re-organized everything by title. You see; I have this magazine addiction which can take on very large proportions. I have to clean...

Sounds like a great combination, and looks great, despite the canned peas. I usually use frozen rather than canned, as it seems a little closer to fresh to me and at least they are bright green! lol. On the magazines, I managed to wean myself from keeping them all by finding that most of the magazines now provide their recipes online. So I only keep the ones that I can’t go search their recipe archive online, nowadays! So, why is my office still such a mess…..? [Reply] 
Sophie - May 19, 2009 - 08:53
This is an excellent salad!! It contains all neat ingredients! Yum Yum Yum! [Reply]
Peter G - May 19, 2009 - 11:48
I love the salad Simone…but would have to agree with the first poster about using frozen peas…they are very easy to use. (can you get the frozen in Holland?). [Reply]
Angela@spinachtiger - May 19, 2009 - 14:24
I understand the “need to eat light.” I can eat peas anytime. Never had them with mozzarella. I’m inspired today to try. I decided to go gluten free for one month, just to see what some of my readers may go through. This is gluten free, yet looks hearty and light at same time. Love those kind of meals. [Reply] 
Simone (junglefrog) - May 19, 2009 - 17:06
Digigirl, it’s a great idea to check the online mags, but I just cannot go without actually seeing paper and touching it. I love reading magazines and the computer is just not going to make that go away Thanks Sofie and yes, I should have used frozen ones!! Peter, you can buy them frozen in Holland. I just didn’t think about it untill it was too late unfortunately! Thanks Angela! [Reply] 
Pam Brown - May 19, 2009 - 17:37
Wow! Peas never looked so good. I need to show my daughter your picture and maybe I can get her to eat them. [Reply] 
Culinary Wannabe - May 19, 2009 - 20:36
Yes, you should check out Gourmet if you see it. But is sounds like you already have your hands full with enough cooking magazines! [Reply] 
MakiB - May 19, 2009 - 22:43
I try to limit my magazine buying too. I mostly go to the library and check out all sorts of food magazines all at once. I can sit for hours on my couch, leafing through pages and pages. Beautiful salad. [Reply]
FoodJunkie - May 20, 2009 - 07:22
Healthy? Hmmm… Prosciutto and mozarella (unfortunately) contain many “bad” fats. However, it is a darn tasty salad this one, and beautifully shot (as always)! I have a magazine clippings addiction, because the whole magazines just take up too much space. And no, they are not neatly organized at all… [Reply]  Simone (junglefrog) Reply: Haha.. [Reply] 
Kate - Aapplemint - May 20, 2009 - 12:30
That not only screams healthy, but yummy also ! I love the lovely bright light in all your photographs ! [Reply] |
