This post is courtesy of my wonderful hubby Joe. For my birthday this year he came home from work early to make me dinner and did a wonderful job. We had this as an appetizer and it looked so good and tasted even better that I just had to feature it here on my blog. Although it is a pretty simple presentation, the taste profile of using smoked fresh mozzarella instead of regular fresh mozzarella really makes it different. If you are looking for something that looks wonderful and is very easy to put together, this can be one of your go to preparations.
