Caprese skewers with balsamic
Italian snack for Phase 2: tomato, mozzarella and basil with balsamic, a bit of healthy carbs.
Caprese skewers with balsamic are a fresh Italian classic on a handy little stick. Sweet cherry tomato, creamy mini mozzarella and a fragrant basil leaf come together, finished with a splash of balsamic glaze and a hint of olive oil. The result is a festive snack that tastes both fresh and deliciously sweet on the tongue.
In Phase 2 of a protein diet, there's room for a little healthy carbohydrates, and these caprese skewers fit in perfectly. The mozzarella delivers high-quality protein that contributes to your satisfaction and supports your muscles, whilst the tomato provides fresh, light carbohydrates and plenty of flavour. That combination of protein and a modest amount of carbohydrates makes it a high-protein snack that aligns with the balanced build-up of this phase.
Lovely with some rocket, a few olives or a thin slice of Parma ham alongside for a more generous snack. Also delicious as a colourful starter or as a fresh addition to a salad.
