About Caprese sandwich

The Caprese Sandwich is a flavorful nod to Italian cuisine, inspired by the classic Caprese salad. This vegetarian delight features vibrant layers of fresh mozzarella, juicy ripe tomatoes, fragrant basil leaves, and a drizzle of balsamic glaze, all nestled between slices of crusty bread or a baguette. Often enhanced with olive oil, salt, and pepper, this sandwich celebrates simple, wholesome ingredients. It's a good source of protein and calcium from the mozzarella, while tomatoes and basil contribute antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals. Olive oil adds heart-healthy fats. Although nutritious, the sandwich’s calorie count can rise depending on the type and quantity of bread or additional toppings, like pesto or mayonnaise. Perfect for a light yet satisfying meal, the Caprese Sandwich offers a fresh, balanced option that embodies Mediterranean flavors and promotes mindful eating.
