Published on 07 July 2022
These mini mozzarella balls, cherry tomato and basil skewers are a super quick and tasty lunchbox snack. Cut the pointy ends off the toothpicks before you assemble the skewers to make them safe for small hands. These are delicious dipped in balsamic vinegar or glaze but are equally good on their own.
