Ingredients
  

  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes cut in half
  • 1 8-ounce container of fresh small mozzarella the pearl size, about the size of cherry tomatoes
  • fresh basil leaves cut to fit the size of the tomatoes and mozzarella
  • olive oil
  • balsamic vinegar optional in my opinion!
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • toothpicks

Instructions
 

  • Drizzle olive oil and vinegar on a platter and sprinkle salt and pepper over it.
  • Using the toothpicks, skewer a half of a tomato first, a piece of basil leaf next, then a mozzarella ball. Make sure you've bought the pearls.
  • Arrange on a platter, et voila! So simply, you have a beautiful appetizer or party platter.
