  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes
  • 1 (15 oz) jar quartered marinated artichoke hearts
  • 1 (12 oz) jar roasted red peppers chopped into segments
  • black olives

Instructions

  • Drain liquids/oils from artichoke hearts, black olives, roasted red peppers, cherry peppers and mozzarella balls. Arrange ingredients in bowls
  • Skewer three items plus fresh basil leaves on each toothpick. Mix and match the combination of items on each skewer so each is different.
  • Place the toothpicks on a large round plate in the shape of a wreath, stacking toothpicks 2 to 3 layers high.
  • Place bits of rosemary sprigs on top of your wreath as well as tucked in throughout, making sure they are poking out a bit to mimic the greenery of a wreath.
  • Place balsamic glaze or Italian dressing in a ramekin or small bowl and place in the center of the wreath.
