Melanzane Caprese | Eggplant Caprese

I love this adaptation of the classic Caprese Salad. The jewel-toned eggplant skin, milky white mozzarella, crimson red tomatoes, and bright green basil leaves make this such an elegant looking antipasto. Paired with a glass of Lumavite Devay from Marche, you love it even more! Salute!!
