• 12 wooden skewers, about 4-6 inches each

Recipe

• 1 build skewers by gently piercing tomato, cheese, and basil leaf in an alternating fashion.
• 2 as usual, my measurements above may be slightly off, so make as many or few as you desire.
• 3 arrange on a pretty platter with drizzle of the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper.
• 4 quick tip: if you don't have the budget for a high quality variety of balsamic vinegar, buy an inexpensive version and reduce in a sauce pan until it thickens into a syrup like consistency. this intensifies the flavor and helps you to get better quality for the money.
