These Caprese Cheese Tacos are JUST that. They are easy to make and will have you done and feeding your favorite people in less than 30 minutes. They are filled with some of my favorite food and flavors – including basil, feta and yes, CHEESE.

Caprese Cheese Tacos

Ingredients:

2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded

2 roma tomatoes, diced

¼ cup red onion, diced

¼ cup fresh basil, chopped

¼ cup feta cheese

2 tablespoons balsamic glaze

Here is how to pull them all together.

Instructions:

Heat a skillet over medium-low heat. Pinch a tablespoon of mozzarella and place it in the skillet, spreading it into an a single layer circle. Allow to cook until nearly golden on top, around 2 minutes, then gently scrape with a spatula, folding it over the rounded end of a wooden spoon. Remove from the pan and allow to sit for 30 seconds on a paper towel-lined plate to keep its shape. Repeat with remaining cheese to make the taco shells.

In a medium-sized bowl, combine the tomatoes, red onion, fresh basil and feta cheese. Scoop generous portions into each cheese taco shell, then drizzle with the balsamic glaze. Serve immediately.
