1
Wash and Prepare Ingredients
Rinse the cherry tomatoes and basil leaves under cold water. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
2
Cut Mozzarella Balls
If the mozzarella balls are large, cut them in half to ensure they fit well on the skewers.

3
Assemble Skewers
Take a skewer and thread one cherry tomato, followed by a basil leaf, and then a mozzarella ball. Repeat this process until the skewer is filled, usually 3-4 times per skewer.

4
Prepare Dressing
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
5
Drizzle Dressing
Once all skewers are assembled, drizzle the dressing over the skewers or serve the dressing on the side for dipping.

6
Serve
Arrange the skewers on a serving platter and enjoy them fresh as a delicious appetizer.
