fresh garden caprese skewers

Fresh mozzarella.
Plump cherry tomatoes.
And garden fresh basil.

You really can't go wrong with those ingredients.
Especially when paired together as an appetizer.

This one only takes about five minutes to prepare.
And is fancy enough to take to a dinner party while still being delicious enough to indulge in as a snack.


Other than the main trio, you just need some toothpicks, balsamic vinegar, oil olive and salt.


Place one tomato and one mozzarella ball in each basil leaf.


Secure with a toothpick to make a little basil boat.
Drizzle with balsamic vinegar, olive oil and a touch of salt.

Fresh, healthy and quick to prepare.
The perfect summer treat.

You're making me hungry. Stop that.
But seriously, these look divine. I'm such a sucker for anything that involves caprese..sandwiches, skewers..yum.

These are too adorable. I've seen the skewers before, but I never thought to create a little "boat" with the basil leaf!

One of my fav things to eat. I'm not so much a fan of tomato, but I could eat mozzarella and basil all day!
