1
Prepare the Bacon
In a skillet over medium heat, add the bacon strips. Cook until crispy, turning occasionally, for about 8-10 minutes. Once done, remove from skillet and drain on paper towels.
2
Cook the Mushrooms
In the same skillet with the bacon grease, add the mushrooms. Sauté over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes, until they are golden brown. Add balsamic vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Stir well and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the liquid has reduced. Remove from heat.
3
Prepare the Tomatoes and Arugula
While the mushrooms are cooking, wash and slice the tomatoes into thick rounds. Rinse the arugula under cold water and shake off excess water.

4
Layer the Ingredients
On a serving platter or individual plates, start by placing a bed of arugula. Next, layer the sliced tomatoes on top of the arugula.
5
Add the Bacon and Mushrooms
Crumble the crispy bacon over the tomatoes and then spoon the balsamico mushrooms on top of everything.
6
Top with Mozzarella
Tear or slice the mozzarella cheese into bite-sized pieces and scatter them over the dish. Drizzle with olive oil for extra flavor.
