I literally turned up the heat on this favorite dish. I heated the tomatoes until they were hot and sizzling and then poured them over the fresh mozzarella. This dish dances in your mouth, peppery arugula, melting mozzarella and warm tomatoes. I can’t think of anything better to serve on a beautiful spring day. Perfect with grilled meats, fish or along side a juicy hamburger.
