But for the days when a traditional Caprese won’t cut it – or you need to feed a crowd with a delicious and easy appetizer – why not turn it into some Hot Caprese Dip! It’s bubbly/melted cheese, pesto, cherry tomatoes and that’s basically it! You can serve it up with crostini, seedy crackers, or scoop it up with a fork and call it a day. I’ve used a store-bought pesto for this recipe to keep things simple, but you could easily use your
as well! Either way, I promise this snack is going to be the talk of the town once you serve it to your friends and family. Just make sure to make it right before you serve it – if it sits for too long it won’t be melty!
Yield:
Serves 10+
2 8-ounce containers of fresh mozzarella (cut into cubes)
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
In a medium skillet, add the halved cherry tomatoes.
Drain the mozzarella from any water that it’s packaged with and add a layer of the mozzarella over the tomatoes. Drizzle the pesto over the top and toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Bake for about 25 minutes or until very hot and bubbly. Serve IMMEDIATELY with all sorts of crostini and crackers
