Can I make Holiday Caprese Skewers the night before?

Yes, but for best presentation, store components separately and assemble before serving to keep basil fresh.

What can I use instead of mozzarella?

Try feta cubes or marinated goat cheese for a stronger flavor.

Arrange in holiday shapes like stars or wreaths and use red and yellow cherry tomatoes.

Yes, all ingredients are naturally gluten-free, making them a safe option for most diets.

1. Assemble Skewers: On each skewer, layer a cherry tomato, a basil leaf, and a mozzarella ball.

2. Arrange on Platter: Place the assembled skewers on a serving platter.

3. Drizzle with Balsamic Glaze: Just before serving, drizzle the skewers with balsamic glaze.

For best results, use fresh and high-quality ingredients.

You can prepare the skewers a few hours ahead of time and refrigerate them; add the balsamic glaze just before serving to prevent sogginess.
