A Lunch with Caprese


I work with a wonderful group of foodies, and today I was lucky enough to have someone bring in fresh and beautiful garden tomatoes - Idea!! Caprese sandwiches! (yum!) It is also a pretty point friendly lunch (10 points plus value). Eating like this reminded me you have to enjoy the summer season while its here!
