Equipment

  • 6 inch skewers

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pint Grape tomatoes
  • 8 oz small mozzarella balls If can't find the balls then cut fresh mozzarella into cubes for the skewers
  • 12 oz sliced (or cubed) Italian cured meats such as prosciutto and salami I usually do a 6 oz package of prosciutto and a 6 oz package of salami
  • 15 oz jar or can of quartered artichoke hearts (in water)
  • 8 oz jar of olives or you can do a mix of green and black olives
  • fresh basil
  • fresh rosemary optional, for serving
  • high quality olive oil for serving
  • Balsamic glaze or aged balsamic vinegar (thick and sweet) for serving
  • freshly cracked pepper

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the ingredients by washing the tomatoes and herbs, and draining the jars of olive, artichoke hearts and mozzarella balls.
  • Mix and match the ingredients, threading them onto the skewers. Try to get equal amounts on each skewer.
  • Once the ingredients have been used up, arrange them in a wreath shape on a round platter. Drizzle with a little olive oil and balsamic glaze then tuck in a few sprigs of rosemary.
    Repeat the process for another 1-2 layers until the skewers have all been used. Tuck in more sprigs of rosemary to give the dish a "wreath" like appearance.
    Garnish with a little freshly cracked pepper and serve. Enjoy!
