Ingredients
2/3 cup olive oil and vinegar salad dressing (recommended: Newman's Own)
1 packet (1.06 ounces) herbs marinade mix (recommended: McCormick Grill Mates)
16 ounces fresh mozzarella 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) pieces
Directions
- 10-inch bamboo skewers, soaked in water at least 1 hour prior to grilling
- Stir together salad dressing, herb marinade packet, and 1/2 cup water. Set aside.
- Place cheese and vegetables in a resealable bag and pour in marinade. Seal and marinate in refrigerator for 1 to 4 hours.
- Thread the skewers by alternating vegetables, cheese, and bread.
- Brush bread with some of the leftover marinade mixture and save the rest for garnish.
- 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.
