A great recipe for potlucks or your next backyard barbecue!
Ingredients
Cherry tomatoes
Fresh mozzarella or Bocconcini balls (roughly the same size as the Cherry Tomatoes)
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Fresh basil
Balsamic vinegar (optional but delicious!)
Salt and Pepper
Skewers
Directions
1. Soak the skewers in water for an hour
2. Separate the basil leaves.
3. Skewer mozzarella, a piece of basil, and then a tomato. Place on platter and continue until finished with ingredients. If the bocconcini balls are too large you can cut them in half.
4. Just before serving, drizzle with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Sprinkle with a little salt and pepper.
Count each skewer as 1 protein
