- 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
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.
