I thought since I was posting the Caprese Omelet… I’d post my Caprese Skewers… think Caprese Salad on skewer… perfect as a side to a meal or even a snack… great for parties… and easy to tote for picnics… an all around great little recipe.
TIPS
Use whatever dressing you prefer on these… I drizzle my favorite Italian Dressing on them.
Use a non-fat dressing and a part skim mozzarella cheese for a really low fat snack.
Fresh mozzarella is best.. no doubt.. but the firmer mozzarella you find in the dairy section at the grocery store does hold up to traveling better.. so if you’re toting these to a picnic I would recommend you use the firmer kind.
These are just yummy!
Recipe: Caprese Skewers
All you need:
Cherry or grape tomatoes
Basil leaves
Mozzarella cheese, cut into cubes
Dressing of choice
All you need to do:
Slip the tomato, basil leaves and cheese cubes on wooden skewers.
Lay them in a dish or container.
Drizzle dressing over them… cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for about an hour.
