Italian Bites

20170415_174716

  • 12 oz pack of cherry tomatoes
  • 7oz tub of fresh mozzarella (I use bocconcini but really you can use any shape!)
  • bunch of fresh basil
  • Gimme Lean, one pack
  • 1/4 of a yellow onion, diced
  • 1 clove garlic, pressed
  • 2 tsp oregano

Wash and cut your cherry tomatoes in half. Then cut your mozzarella to comparable size. Wash your basil bunch and tear off a leaf per skewer. Skewer all three ingredients in whatever order takes your fancy. For the meatballs: Take half a pack of Gimme Lean and move to a bowl. Dice up your onion and press your garlic into your gimme lean and sprinkle in your oregano. Roll into balls comparable to the size of your tomato and mozzarella slices and sauté until lightly browned on all sides. Add them to finish off your skewers. Give an overall sprinkle of salt and pepper.
