Caprese Salad Skewers

These are not pure paleo but are low-carb. Sometimes you just need to have some cheese!

Insalata Caprese is traditionally a simple salad, made of sliced fresh mozzarella, tomatoes and basil, seasoned with salt, and olive oil. In Italy, unlike most salads, it is usually served as an antipasto, not a contorno.

1 package 8-inch bamboo skewers
1 pint cherry or grape tomatoes
2 tubs bocconcini (small balls of fresh mozzarella), drained
24 leaves fresh basil
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
Balsamic Vinegar
Salt and pepper

For caprese sticks, skewer tomatoes and bocconcini bites, placing basil leaves between them. Drizzle these sticks with extra-virgin oil, balsamic vinegar and season with salt and pepper, to your taste.
