Christmas Dinner - Amuse Bouche: Caprese Bites


An amuse bouche is a one bite "teaser" if you will that gets your taste buds prepared for a wonderful meal that is about to begin.  They can be served on small spoons such as the one shown above or a shot glass or even as a little bit served on a toast point or piece of fruit.

What I chose to do is a play on a caprese salad.  I incorporated all the ingredients but in one small bite.

To make one serving:

Slice a small cherry or grape tomato in half and place in spoon
Top with either shredded mozzarella or a half of a mini-mozzarella ball
Drizzle with a little olive oil
Add a drop or two of Balsamic vinegar 
Top with shredded basil
