Creating Balsamic Strawberry Caprese is straightforward, requiring just a few simple steps:
1. Prepare Strawberries: Hull the strawberries and slice them into thin rounds or halves, depending on their size.

3. Layer the Ingredients: On a large plate or serving platter, arrange the sliced strawberries and mozzarella alternately.
4. Add Basil: Tuck whole basil leaves between the layers of strawberries and mozzarella for flavor and aesthetics.
5. Season: Lightly sprinkle salt and freshly cracked black pepper over the salad for added flavor.
