I am a fan of caprese in every way, shape, and form. I will skip the Forest Gump-esque list, but trust me.
In salad form, caprese is often my go-to for gatherings and dinner parties (see here, here, here, oh and here). This weekend, for a casual gathering before an outdoor screening, I shrunk it down in scale to almost-bite-sized finger-friendly skewers, not even a little small on flavor… or cuteness.
Let’s be honest, you can never have enough cuteness.
cherry tomatoes, basil, fresh mozzarella, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt & pepper
one tomato, one ball of mozzarella, folded basil leaf, and a toothpick
arrange on a simple white platter and drizzle with olive oil and balsamic then grind salt and pepper all over
I love to make caprese skewers…such a great appetizer. Thanks for sharing your version!
“Forrest Gump-esque”–excellent word choice!
