Easy Tomato Caprese Appetizer Recipe

This Easy Tomato Caprese Appetizer Recipe is one I have been making for years! I love to host dinner gatherings and when you are serving some heavy dinner items a light appetizer is the perfect pairing.  Everyone tends to look at this odd but trust me it is very tasty!  (I have included affiliate links to products I love.

Now ordinally this would be just served at a dinner party or gathering but I have put this together for tailgating events at my house too.  The football games go long so starting out with some fresher/healthier appetizer options never hurts anyone.  As another bonus, it tends to be gone by the time the first quarter is over so there is never any wasted.
