5 steps

Ingredients

  • 1 cup grape tomatoes, washed
  • 8 ounces of fresh bocconcini, little mzzarella balls
  • 1 cup basil leaves, washed, stemmed, and dried
  • 14 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 14 cup olive oil
  • salt
  • pepper
  • 12 wooden skewers, about 4-6 inches each

Directions

  1. 1
    Build skewers by gently piercing tomato, cheese, and basil leaf in an alternating fashion.
  2. 2
    As usual, my measurements above may be slightly off, so make as many or few as you desire.
  3. 3
    Arrange on a pretty platter with drizzle of the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper.
  4. 4
    Quick Tip: If you don't have the budget for a high quality variety of balsamic vinegar, buy an inexpensive version and reduce in a sauce pan until it thickens into a syrup like consistency.
  5. 5
    This intensifies the flavor and helps you to get better quality for the money.
