- Cut 1/2 inch off the tops and bottoms of 6 tomatoes and throw away. Cut the tomatoes in half horizontally. Cut 1 lb. fresh mozzarella into 6 thick slices. Sandwich cheese and fresh basil leaves between thick tomato slices, trimming off excess cheese to make the cheese conform to the tomatoes' shapes.
