This is a great, easy finger appetizer. I came up with it because I love Caprese but it was difficult to serve at large parties. Putting the same ingredients on a toothpick yielded great results.
Ingredients
- 1 pint cherry tomatoes , halved
- 1 package fresh basil leaves , .6 ounce
- 1 package small fresh mozzarella balls , 16 ounce
- toothpicks
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions

1
Thread a tomato half, a small piece of basil leaf, and a mozzarella ball onto toothpicks until all ingredients are used. Drizzle the olive oil over the tomato, cheese and basil, leaving the end of the toothpick clean. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

These are pretty darned adorable, and tasty, too. You could skip the graham cracker layer but it really adds a nice texture to this velvety creation.

Gyoza are the Japanese version of jiaozi, or Chinese potstickers. This version is pan-fried but they work well deep-fried or steamed too.
