Caprese Skewers.

I wanted to share an easy appetizer recipe that I have made a few times and it was a fresh, light and delicious hit.  Everyone likes a good old caprese salad and this is just a spin off of that. So here are the directions to make cute and simple caprese skewers.  This would also be a great snack too if you didn't have a summer party to go to anytime soon.

Caprese Skewers

1 pint cherry tomatoes
8 oz container of fresh mozzarella (small balls)
Large bunch of basil leaves
Balsamic Vinegar
Salt & Pepper
Toothpicks

1. Put one basil leave, one cherry tomato and one piece of fresh mozzarella onto the toothpick.
2. This should make around 20 skewers.  Once you are done with all the skewers, sprinkle Salt, Pepper and Balsamic Vinegar on them and they are ready to be served.

They are so delicious and the single servings are nice because no plates or utensils are necessary.  Enjoy this fresh appetizer before some great barbeque food and they won't fill you up, just satisfy you!
