Tips:
- Prep Ahead: For easy entertaining, prepare the bruschetta, caprese skewers, and crostini ahead of time and store them in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
- Use Fresh Ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the taste of your appetizers. Use fresh, ripe tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, and basil for the bruschetta and caprese skewers. Choose a good quality olive oil for the crostini.
- Don't Overcrowd the Skewers: When making the caprese skewers, don't overcrowd them. This will make them difficult to eat and may cause the ingredients to fall off.
- Serve Immediately: Bruschetta and crostini are best served immediately after they are made. This will ensure that the bread is crispy and the ingredients are fresh.
