Ingredients
  

1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved

8 oz fresh mozzarella balls (bocconcini), drained

Fresh basil leaves, 1 cup

2 tablespoons balsamic glaze

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

Salt and black pepper, to taste

Skewers (6-inch or 8-inch)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Ingredients: Start by washing the cherry tomatoes and basil leaves. Drain the mozzarella balls and set aside.

    Assemble the Skewers: Take a skewer and thread one half of a cherry tomato, followed by a basil leaf, then a mozzarella ball. Repeat this process until you reach the end of the skewer. You can fit 2-3 sets depending on the skewer length.

      Season the Skewers: Once assembled, drizzle the skewers lightly with extra virgin olive oil, followed by a sprinkle of salt and black pepper to taste.

        Add Balsamic Glaze: Drizzle balsamic glaze over the skewers for a sweet and tangy finish.

          Serve: Arrange the skewers on a serving platter and garnish with any remaining basil leaves. Serve immediately, or let them chill in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes for an even more refreshing taste.
