If your mozzarella is not pre-sliced, slice it to about ¼-inch per slice. Slice your tomatoes to an equal thickness.
Spread a handful of greens on a small platter or serving tray. Alternating the fresh mozzarella and tomato slices, layer on top of the greens.
Drizzle the extra-virgin olive oil and balsamic glaze or reduction to your liking and top with the fresh basil leaves and a sprinkle of sea salt and freshly ground pepper. Enjoy!
