Caprese salad, a lively medley of colors and freshness, originates from the vibrant landscapes of southern Italy. In fact, "Caprese" translates to "from Capri." Fresh mozzarella, ripe red tomatoes, and verdant basil, adorned with a drizzle of robust olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and a pinch of salt embody simplicity in its most stunning form.
Usually served layered on a plate as a salad, we've turned this classic Italian dish into a cute appetizer that's easy to serve and sure to delight guests.
Simply use a heart-shaped cookie cutter to make mini mozzarella hearts. Slice cherry tomatoes in half. Then layer the tomato halves, basil, and mozzarella on skewers and place on a platter. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar and olive oil.
