Antipasto Skewers

by Jillian Leslie on

Yep, it’s officially summer, and I couldn’t be happier! There’s something about the warm weather, the long days, and the laid back vibe, that really speaks to me.

Being both entrepreneurs and parents, my husband and I don’t get a lot of relaxing evenings together.

So it was such a treat to have a night where we could sip delicious wine, eat yummy food, and really enjoy each other’s company. No one makes me laugh like my husband!

But first, I need to tell you about my antipasto skewers… These couldn’t be easier, and because they’re served cold, they make the perfect summer appetizer. I made these in about 10 minutes.

Even though antipasto means “before the meal,” I wanted my antipasto skewers to feel like a meal, so I added lots of prosciutto, salami, and mozzarella.

The mix of colors, textures, and flavors worked — they tasted salty, creamy, crisp, fresh, and rich. And it’s always fun to eat with your hands, especially while enjoying a great glass of wine.

Now let me share a little more about the wine. If you like citrus and pineapple notes, minerality, and zing, this is the wine for you. This is my favorite wine profile, so I will be buying more!

My husband and I had the perfect, easy night!
