Caprese Skewers

Want to give a bit of elegance to your summer time barbq? Add these Caprese Skewers that are easy enough to make and perfect to give an Italian twist to your next barbq.





15 Cherry Tomatoes, Organic; rinsed and dried with clean cloth
15 Fresh Mozzarella Balls, Pearl Sized (Found at Fresh Markets/Whole Foods)
15 Fresh Basil Leaves
15 Elegant Toothpicks (They’re a little bigger than normal toothpicks)
1/8 Cup

- Place one mozzarella ball on a skewer two-thirds of the way up, followed by one basil leaf then one cherry tomato. Be careful not to put the toothpick all the way through the tomato.
- Slice a very small piece off the bottom of the tomato to allow the skewer to stand-up straight on a serving plate.
- Place skewer on serving platter and repeat steps for remaining skewers.
- Once all the skewers are done, you can chill the appetizer at this point until you are ready to serve.
