Bruchetta Tomato Slather

For a great appetizer chop up and season some of summer's finest tomatoes.
Add some pre-made bruchetta crisps and serve.

To make 2 cups

Toss together:
4-5 juicy red tomatoes, roughly chopped
8 kalamata olives, pitted and roughly chopped
1/2 cup fresh mozzerella, roughly chopped

Whisk together in a small bowl:
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 clove garlic, minced
1 teaspoon capers
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
loads of fresh ground pepper
a few slivered basil leaves

Pour over tomato mixture and let sit at room temperature for a half hour to blend flavors.
Serve with crisp bread, thinly sliced baguette or spoons.
