Caprese Skewers Recipe • A Fresh & Tasty Appetizer! | Club Foody

 

When we get close to September, there’s a plentiful amount of fresh produce especially tomatoes 🍅! They’re perfect for stocking a few jars of marinara sauce, making your own sun-dried tomatoes or salsa, a refreshing gazpacho, bruschetta, and more.
 
David and I like growing them 👩‍🌾👨‍🌾 especially cherry tomatoes. They’re sweet, the plants don’t take too much space on our patio plus they’re so versatile. I like using them in salads like Pasta Primavera, Israeli Salad, Mixed Tomato Salad, or in my Tuscan Chicken, Creole Shrimp & Andouille Skewers, Mediterranean Fish Fillet with Tapenade, etc.
 
Another recipe I like making is Caprese Skewers! Quick & easy to make ⏳, this is a delicious Italian appetizer to enjoy! With cherry tomatoes, mini bocconcini, and seasonings along with a beautiful balsamic glaze, this is another tasty way to enjoy these little guys!
 
Besides the fact it takes only 5 minutes to make them, this is a great recipe when entertaining. This classic appetizer is perfect to serve for any occasion 🎄. Although I make them more often at the end of the summer, they’re still a good choice throughout the year.
 
It doesn’t need too many ingredients to make it so tasty as well as healthy. There are tomatoes, mini bocconcini, extra virgin olive oil, basil leaves, Italian seasoning, salt 🧂 and pepper. For the finishing touch, I drizzle on some balsamic glaze.
 
First, I mix all the ingredients together in a bowl and stir until well coated before skewering 🍡 the tomatoes and cheese balls. For a nicer presentation, I use different colors of tomatoes like red, yellow and orange.
 
To elevate these Caprese Skewers, I drizzle on my Homemade Balsamic Vinegar on top but before I do that, I also uplift the condiment by adding a touch of cayenne pepper – hot paprika is another option. It gives a “je ne sais quoi”, an extra layer of yumminess 🥰 to that sweet and tangy balsamic reduction.
 
Quick to make and easy to assemble, these Caprese Skewers are a fabulous appetizer! They make a healthy 💚 hors d’oeuvre and are perfect to serve for any party, potluck, picnic, or when you simply want to enjoy them!
Bon Appétit! 🍽
