There are tons of different types of food available on a stick. Ice cream, corn dogs, sausage, alligator (if you are from New Orleans this won't seem so odd) and cookies to name a few. I don't know if food is more fun to eat on a stick or if it is just easier. Here is a version of my favorite type of salad on a stick - Caprese Salad Skewers. Fun to make, fun to eat and even more fun to serve!Caprese Salad Skewers

Now THAT is just about the prettiest and most interesting salad I've ever seen. Oh, and it looks delicious too. I'm so glad you shared this recipe and photos with us.
Very nice! They look so pretty put together like this.
hi, this looks delicious, but there is a slight typo, you are supposed to mix 1/4 cup of olive oil and 2 tablespoons of olive oil?? :D
I'm going to see if they have ciliegine on the supermarket here.
Mmm...caprese salad is one of my favorites!! It's probably even more delicious on a stick!
I love the mini mozzarella balls, they are so good.
