Caprese Inspired Toast

The toast you never thought you needed. Do you love caprese salads but want to add a little more umph to it? Make this toast. I named it "Caprese Inspired" only because I used mint instead of basil and added spinach to the base unlike a normal caprese salad. For the bread I used Kim & Jake's GF herb loaf that is infused with olive oil, rosemary, and thyme. This was a sponsored post however I never doing anything sponsored if it's not truly delicious and made of whole, healthy ingredients. Kim & Jake's makes an assortment of gluten free baked goods and I can't wait to incorporate their goods into my everyday life! So, if you suffer from a gluten free allergy or sensitivity, I highly recommend going onto their website and checking them out! Otherwise, let me show you how to make this easy and flavorful Caprese Inspired Toast! Let's get to it.

Ingredients:

1 bread slice from Kim & Jake's

3 mozzarella rounds

3 slices of tomato

6 kalamata olives

Spinach leaves

Fresh mint

Spicy extra virgin olive oil

Salt

Freshly ground black pepper

Replacement suggestion: The spicy extra virgin olive oil that I used is one I make at home. You simply infuse olive oil in a bottle with chili peppers and let it marinate overnight. Then it's ready to be used! Feel free to use regular extra virgin olive oil.
