Caprese means one thing beyond great flavors: it means red, white, and green. We've got all four of those action items going on this meal: green herbaceous pesto, red tomato-y marinara, and for white, the mozzarella or gnocchi. As for flavor… great doesn't begin to describe the forkfuls you'll savor. Rich, cheesy, and perfect.
