Vegan Tomato Caprese Salad

Here’s a new vegan recipe coming in hot! I used to love a good tomato and mozzarella caprese salad in the summer, but obviously I can’t have it anymore. Now that I’m obsessed with making my own vegan mozzarella (cashew based, but thinking you could also sub hemp hearts and tofu but still need to test so stay tuned!) After I saw these plump heirloom tomatoes at a local produce stand, I knew I had to try this recipe. Let’s just say this one will be on repeat all summer because it is so refreshing.
