Step 1

Make sure you have twelve 6-inch bamboo skewers ready.

Step 2

Marinate mozzarella: In a bowl, combine the mozzarella balls with olive oil, Italian seasoning, and salt and pepper to taste. Let it sit for 15 minutes. It’s a quick marinade, but you can also marinate for up to 3 days if desired. Note: Olive oil solidifies when refrigerated, simply let it come to room temperature for 20-30 minutes.

Step 3

Assemble each skewer: Start with 1 tomato, basil, 2 marinated mozzarella cheese balls, basil, and 1 tomato. Repeat until you have 12 skewers.

Step 4

Arrange on a serving platter. Drizzle with balsamic glaze to taste. Serve immediately. Enjoy!
