GRILLED MOZZARELLA AND TOMATO SKEWERS
Created by Chef Richard Krause for "Chef on a Shoestring." The CBS Saturday Early Show challenge was to create a gourmet 3 course meal for 4 people for less than $20. I love the presentation of this, much more interesting than simple bruschetta. Cut the bread into about 3/4" thick rounds for this. The ingredients after the skewers is for the sauce. I've also made this without the bread before and served it over couscous as a main dish. BE VERY CAREFUL cooking these as you only want them lightly toasted. It literally takes seconds. If you leave them over the heat too long, the cheese will melt all over the place.

Steps:
- Cut mozzarella in half, then into eight 3/4" slices.
- Place ingredients on the skewers in the following order: bread, tomato, basil, mozzarella, tomato, basil, mozzarella and bread. Set aside while you make the sauce.
- Mix all the sauce ingredients (everything following the skewers) together in a saucepan and warm for 1-2 minutes before serving. You don't want the tomatoes to break down, but rather just to be warmed.
- Brush the skewered mozzarella and tomato with a little olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
- Grill over high heat on both sides until the bread is lightly toasted and the cheese begins to melt, about 30-45 seconds per side.
- Spoon the sauce onto 4 warm dinner plates. Set the skewers neatly on top of the sauce, slide out the skewers and serve.

- Slice a 16 oz. mozzarella log into equal pieces--some groceries sell them pre-sliced! Slice each piece into about 4-6 one inch pieces. The end pieces will only cut into about 3 or 4. Toss the mozzarella pieces with the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic, Italian seasoning, oregano, salt and pepper and evenly coat. Chill to marinate for at least 30 minutes and up to about 24 hours. If marinating more than an hour or two, toss the mozzarella a few times every couple of hours or so.
- When ready to prep the skewers, toss the mozzarella one last time. Chop the basil leaves into smaller pieces if the leaves are very large to make about 40 pieces. Thread a slice of mozzarella, a piece of basil leaf, one tomato and another piece of mozzarella.
- Continue until all the mozzarella is gone. Place skewers on a serving platter or into a container that can be sealed. Add a piece of wax paper between layers of skewers. Chill until ready to serve or serve immediately.
