Mozzarella Skewers Recipe

Ingredients

• 2/3 cup olive oil-and-vinegar dressing (recommended Newman's Own)

• 1 (1 1/16 ounce) packet herb seasoning mix (recommended McCormick Grill Mates)
• 16 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese, in water, cut into 1-inch pieces
• 24 cherry tomatoes
• 1 red onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
• 1 sourdough baguette, cut into 24 (1-inch)
• 10 inches bamboo skewers, soaked in water at least 1 hour prior to grilling

Directions

1. 1

   Stir together salad dressing, herb marinade packet, and 1/2 cup water. Set aside.

2. 2

   Place cheese and vegetables in a resealable bag and pour in marinade. Seal and marinate in refrigerator for 1 to 4 hours.

3. 3

   Thread the skewers by alternating vegetables, cheese, and bread.

4. 4

   Brush bread with some of the leftover marinade mixture and save the rest for garnish.

5. 5

   Set up grill for direct cooking over medium heat. Lightly oil the grilling grates and place the skewers on the grill. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side, turning once. Bread should be toasted and cheese softened. Serve right off the grill drizzled with additional marinade.
