CAPRESE SALAD KABOBS
Trade in the usual veggie platter for these fun kabobs. In addition to preparing these for get-togethers, I often make these as snacks for my family. And because assembly is so easy, the kids often ask to help. —Christine Mitchell, Glendora, California

CAPRESE KABOB
Steps:
- Prepare a grill for medium-high heat.
- In a large bowl, combine the bocconcini, tomatoes, oil, salt, pepper flakes and some black pepper. Toss until fully combined.
- Build the skewers: Thread basil, tomato, mozzarella and bread onto long wooden skewers; repeat in that sequence. Place the skewers on a baking sheet and drizzle oil over the bread. Set aside for 5 minutes to marinate, then drain off excess oil.
- Grill, rotating constantly, until the cheese is warmed and the bread is toasted, 2 to 3 minutes. Serve immediately.
FRESH CAPRESE VEGETABLE KABOBS
This is a beautiful appetizer dish or side dish. It's great for potlucks and it always gets lots of compliments. The key is to use the freshest of ingredients. I buy the fresh basil and tomatoes from my farmer's market or (if it's winter) our local fresh market. NOTE: If you can't find little cherry sized mozzarella, you can buy the large sized balls and cut them into bite sized pieces.
