Caprese Tart
Posted on June 07 2022,
The inspo for this one came from the Woolworths Fresh magazine, which I’m obsessed with collecting because the recipes it features are so good.
It also means I don’t have to constantly think of dinner ideas.
This one was a Sunday treat & extremely easy. It would make for a bangin’ midweek dinner.
It has minimal ingredients, is simple to prep, but most importantly, packs a punch in terms of flavour. It was so good I made two!
I would say this serves 4 people better than 6, so if you’re a big eater like me, the macros & calories will be a little higher. Give it a go & let me know what you think!
