Classic Itallian Tricolore Snack

So this one is pretty simple, but simple can be delicious!

If you aren't familiar with Tricolore, allow me to break it down for you: The word tricolore refers to the Italian flag (red, white and green) translated into food: tomatoes, cheese and basil. Super simple and super refreshing, great for a summer snack!

This particular pairing is great if you have to throw something together for a potluck.

What you need:
Grape tomatoes - sliced (that can be tricky, please be careful)
Smoked Mozzarella - sliced to 1/4 inch thick and about the size of a wheat thin cracker or ritz
Fresh Basil - also cut to cracker sized pieces
Wheat thins OR Ritz (your decision)

All you do is take a cracker, place a slice of smoked mozzarella on top, then a slice of basil and topped of with a slice of grape tomato.

Pick up cracker and toppings, eat and enjoy!

Variations: you can use Trisquit crackers with a drop of olive oil for a twist on the taste.
