Keto Caprese Salad

Does it get any better than slices of fresh mozzarella layered with ripe tomatoes and avocado topped off with fresh basil, olive oil, and balsamic vinegar? Not only is it beautiful to look at but the taste is simple perfection. I recommend buying the best balsamic vinegar you can and making sure that you avoid one that has added sugars. Just 4 net carbs a serving!
