Fresh basil leaves, washed and dried and cut into pieces the size of a dime

Mozzarella cheese, cut into bite-sized pieces

Sun-dried tomatoes, softened and cut into bite-sized pieces

Decorative toothpicks

Put the ingredients onto decorative toothpicks.  Serve at room temperature.

If the tomatoes aren’t packed in oil, pour boiling water over them and soak them until they soften.

These are great at Christmas time because of the colors of the ingredients.

Thanks to my gourmet sister-in-law Jany for this recipe!
