ph: jocooks.com

LOVE this recipe from JoCooks.com! So perfect for a party, shower, etc... Not only is it delicious (who doesn't love a caprese salad?!), the presentation is perfection.

Prep Time:  10 Mins         Cook Time:  10 Mins            Yield:  4 Servings

Ingredients:

• 2 cups mini bocconcini pieces
• 2 cups cherry tomatoes
• a bunch of fresh basil
• salt and pepper to taste
• 1 cup balsamic vinegar
• toothpics

Instructions:

1. In a small skillet add the balsamic vinegar and cook over medium heat until it reduced to less than half and thickened. Make sure you stir occasionally. It should only take about 5 to 10 minutes, depending on the amount you're reducing.
2. Take a toothpick and on it stick a bocconcini, a basil leaf and a cherry tomato. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
3. Season with salt and pepper.
4. Using a teaspoon drizzle some of the balsamic reduction onto each appetizer.
