Last night I hosted a Thirty-One party for some friends and spent a lot of time looking for some different appetizers and finger foods to serve. I made some tried-and-true favorites like Buffalo Chicken Dip, but thought it would be fun to try some new recipes, too.
I found a couple recipes on Pinterest that I decided to try – one turned out fabulous, the other? Not so much. I’ll spare you those details and share the hit of the party: Mozzarella Caprese Bites.
This recipe was simple and so delicious! Truly a wonderful blend of flavors!
Mozzarella Caprese Bites
- Basil leaves
- Bel Gioioso Fresh Mozzarella
- Organic grape tomatoes
- Nakano Balsamic Blend Seasoned Rice Vinegar
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- Toothpicks
Directions:
- Wash basil and grape tomatoes.
- Cut fresh mozzarella into bite size pieces.
- Assemble the first 3 ingredients on toothpicks.
- Chill until ready to serve.
- Drizzle with Nakano Balsamic Blend and extra virgin olive oil.
Enjoy!
Nakano has several varieties of gluten-free rice vinegars (see picture). All varieties are low in calorie and have no fat or preservatives. These help put a great finishing touch to salads, pizza, veggies, etc. I was very pleased with the flavor the Balsamic Blend added to the Mozzarella Caprese Bites.
Nakano products can be found in grocery stores across the US or online. For gluten-free recipe inspiration, make sure to visit the Nakano Pinterest Board.
