Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 slices Prosciutto
6 slices Soppressata (- spicy)

18 Cherry tomatoes
12 Olives
6 Artichokes (marinated, cut in half)
Basil or parsley leaves
3 tbsp Balsamic vinegar (reduced)

Steps:

  • Using wooden skewers add antipasto ingredients in whatever order you prefer. I like to start and end with either tomatoes or olives.
  • Drizzle the skewers with balsamic reduction and basil or parsley leaves. You can also add basil or parsley leaves in between other ingredients.
  • Add balsamic vinegar to the pot and heat up on a low heat until reduced to the point that it sticks to the back of the spoon.

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 10

20 cheese tortellini
1/2 cup Italian dressing
1 cup olives (20 pieces)
1/2 cup fresh basil leaves (20 pieces)
20 slices salami
1 pint grape tomatoes (20 pieces)
1 jar marinated artichoke hearts (20 pieces)
20 slices pepperoni
6 ounces cheddar cheese (or bocconcini mozzarella balls) (20 one-inch pieces)
20 cocktail picks (6-inch wooden skewers)

Steps:

  • Cook tortellini according to package directions. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process. Transfer to a bowl and toss with Italian dressing. Cover the bowl with plastic cling wrap and refrigerate for 15 minutes up to 2 hours. Drain the marinade.
  • Prepare the remaining ingredients and arrange them in front of you. Thread the items onto cocktail picks (or 6-inch wooden skewers) making sure to alternate between different colors and textures. I threaded the items in the following order: black olive, basil, tortellini, salami, tomato, artichoke heart, pepperoni, black olive, and cheese.
  • Serve with a side of olive oil and balsamic vinegar, with a drizzle of balsamic glaze, or with pesto, if desired.
