Cook's Note
You can substitute whole bocconcini (tiny balls of fresh mozzarella) for the sliced mozzarella.
This is a great appetizer!! I paired this with a cut up loaf of italian bread and basil infused dipping oil. The result was a satisfy and perfectly plated appetizer. I highly recommend this. It is easy to prepare. You may also want to add an small bowl of italian marinated olives....it makes for a great presentation.
This I will try. Sound delicioso.
