Heirloom Cherry Tomatoes - Bocconcini Lollipops
Photo: Jo Ann
Ingredients
12 cherry tomatoes (stems removed) (I used heirloom tomatoes that I found at Trader
12 bocconcini (mini mozzarella balls)
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning mix
1 tablespoon chopped flat-leaf parsley
16 tall wooden skewers
Preparation
1
With a sharp knife, remove the top 1/4 inch of each tomato.
2
Place one tomato and one bocconcini on each skewer.
3
In a bowl, combine the olive oil, Italian seasoning, and parsley. Drizzle a little over each skewer. Sprinkle with a little salt.
4
For the most eye-catching presentation, stand the lollipops in tall glasses. (I put black rice inside my glass to help stabilize the lollipops.)
