Cut tomatoes crosswise in half

Dice ball of mozzarella into cubes around the same size as the tomatoes.

Tear basil leaves into pieces slightly larger than the tomatoes and mozzarella.

Thread the ingredients onto the skewer. I like the following order.

Tomato half on the bottom which allows your caprese salad skewer to stand.

Mozzarella next.

Basil on top of the mozzarella to help catch some of the oil and balsamic vinegar.

Tomato half on top.

As you finish assembling the skewers, stand them up on the platter or plate you’re serving them from.

Drizzle the caprese salad skewers with extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar.
