Caprese Skewers

One of summers freshest and easiest recipes; Caprese salad. You can serve it so many ways, but my favorite are Caprese skewers! I brought this to a recent girls gathering and it was really well received, so much so that a few gals asked for the recipe. Here you go!

Caprese Skewers
(Makes 24 skewers)

Grape tomatoes (72 each)
Fresh Mozzarella (You can use a block and cut squares or buy the mozzarella balls. Both are found in the deli section by the specialty cheeses. 72 each)
Fresh Basil
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Balsamic Vinegar
Sea salt
Pepper
Wood skewers (I buy the standard kabob skewers and cut them down to size.)

Alternate tomato, basil, mozzarella three times on each skewer. Place them on a plate or platter (it's fun to use a contrasting color) and drizzle with EVOO and Balsamic vinegar. Salt and pepper to taste.

Enjoy!
