Recipe Description
These Gouda Gruyere Caprese Skewers are a fresh, flavorful appetizer that’s as beautiful as it is delicious. Creamy Gouda Gruyere cheese from Wood River Creamery pairs perfectly with juicy cherry tomatoes and fragrant basil for a simple twist on the classic Caprese salad. An optional drizzle of balsamic glaze brings a touch of sweetness to tie everything together. Quick to assemble and perfect for parties!
Ingredients
1, 8oz block Wood River Creamery Original Gouda Gruyere
40 cherry tomatoes (about 1 pint)
Fresh basil
Balsamic glaze (optional, but recommended)
20 long party skewers or 40 appetizer picks
Preparation
- Cut the block of Wood River Creamery Gouda Gruyere into 40 squares (do a 5 x 4 grid on the block of cheese to start, then tip each square over and cut in half).
- Assemble each skewer by sliding a cherry tomato, basil leaf, and square of Wood River Creamery Original Gouda Gruyere cheese onto it (doing two of each if you have longer skewers, alternating the ingredients to create a pattern).
- Store prepared skewers in an airtight container in the fridge until ready to serve (up to 24 hours).
- If desired, drizzle with balsamic glaze just before serving and enjoy!
