Caprese Salad featuring Punk Rawk Dairy-Free Cheese
2 servings
Today, I’m sharing a recipe from the wonderful folks over at Punk Rawk Labs. They make amazing gourmet, dairy-free cheeses by fermenting high-quality nut milks. Owned by two women with autoimmune disease who are committed to bringing healthier food options to the market, their cheeses are made with just four simple ingredients. Tomatoes are a great source of the antioxidant lycopene, which is especially beneficial for heart health and vision. Basil contains antioxidants too, and has been found to help relieve stress, protect the liver, and fight inflammation. This easy dairy-free Caprese Salad is the perfect dish to welcome warmer weather and fresh produce with open arms. Download the PDF version here!
