Prepare the Tomatoes
Wash the fresh tomatoes thoroughly under running water. Cut each tomato into bite-sized pieces or wedges and place them into a large mixing bowl.

Slice the Mozzarella
Take the fresh mozzarella cheese and slice it into similar bite-sized pieces as the tomatoes. Add the mozzarella to the mixing bowl with the tomatoes.

Add Basil
Rinse the fresh basil leaves under cold water. Pat them dry with a paper towel, then tear them into smaller pieces (or leave them whole if you prefer). Add the basil to the bowl.
