Caprese tart with pesto and mozzarella

This very simple caprese tart is perfect for a successful, quick and easy-to-make meal. It takes only five minutes to prepare if you use a pesto sauce from a pot, and the tart is very good like that. If you have 10 more minutes, it worth making a home-made pesto sauce: the flavours of basil, […]
