A long narrow board holds a row of colourful antipasto skewers.

Antipasto Skewers

Start the meal off with a flavour packed antipasto appetizer skewer consisting of meat, olives, pickles, cheese, roasted vegetables and fresh basil to wake up the appetite! They are extremely simple to assemble, and you can make them in advance leaving you more time to mingle with your guests.
When purchasing the ingredients, always opt for high-quality ingredients from a deli counter or jarred. Nothing worse that taking a bite of an olive from a can to ruin the entire skewer!
