I am always looking for different ways to enjoy my favorite foods. A Caprese Salad is probably one of my all time favorite things to eat. It’s a fantastic option when serving one or two but isn’t really something that you’d serve to a large group.
I hosted a luncheon for a group of my buddies and wanted to put out a few appetizers that we could munch on before the meal. My thoughts were to offer light snacks that were easy to grab and eat as folks walked around chatting. I thought about my favorite Caprese Salad but…a tomato dripping with balsamic isn’t something that you’d normally serve as finger food. So I put on my thinking cap and came up with a way to get that great Caprese Salad flavor in a bite sized snack. I am pretty sure that I succeeded as my Wonton Caprese Bites were a huge hit. The entire platter I put out came back completely empty!
- 24 wonton wrappers
- 24 cherry tomatoes
- 5 sticks of Weight Watchers® String Cheese, each stick cut into 5 equal pieces
- handful of fresh basil
- salt
- fresh ground pepper
- balsamic vinegar
- Preheat the oven to 375ºF.
- Spray a mini muffin tin with cooking spray and then push the wonton wrappers into each cup of the tin.
- Cut the top off each tomato and using a knife or melon baller, remove most of the seeds of each tomato and then place into the wonton cup.
- Add a basil leaf and a chunk of the Weight Watchers® String Cheese into each tomato.
- Bake in the oven for 10 – 15 minutes or until the wonton is golden brown.
- Remove from oven and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Before serving drizzle each tomato with a little balsamic vinegar.
Veggie trays are always nice but with just a little bit of effort you can serve up big taste that’s sure to impress. My snack doesn’t require a ton of ingredients. Just grab some cherry tomatoes, fresh basil, wonton wrappers and some delicious Weight Watchers® String Cheese to put together a tasty, fresh appetizer or snack that’s ready in a flash.
