The Olive Bin

Caprese Bobs

Tear basil leaves into approximate fourths, making small chunks of leaves. (This makes it easier to place on kabob neatly.) On each bamboo fork, place ingredients in the following order:1 mozzarella pearl, 1/4 chunk of basil leaf (can be folded over onto fork to secure), 1 grape tomato, 1/4 chunk basil leaf, and 1 mozzarella pearl. Thus, each fork will contain 1 grape tomato, 1/2 basil leaf, and 2 mozzarella pearls total. Arrange caprese-bobs neatly on a plate how you'd like displayed. Immediately before serving, combine Traditional balsamic and Basil olive oil by shaking in a bottle or tupperware. Drizzle over kabobs; serve immediately!
