Antipasto Skewers

This is a sponsored recipe on behalf of World Market. As always all opinions are my own.

The BIG game is upon us. Which means all sorts of yummy appetizers and snacks to munch on. I love game day food! Speaking of the BIG game… did anyone watch the game on Saturday night? I’m a born-Steelers fan and let me tell you that I was on the edge of my seat until the very end. I stayed up past midnight because I couldn’t stop watching the game which is not like me. I’m always asleep by 9–10 at the very latest. And then once the game was over I could not get to sleep thanks to all the adrenaline. And of course thoughts and prayers to the players who were all hurt in the game. Everyone was extra rough and some sadly showed less than sportsman like conduct. And the fans… shame on them. Such ugly behavior. It made me mad. Our fans would never do that to the visiting team. Everyone deserves respect. Even an injured player being carted off the field.

Anyways, I digress. Let’s talk about easy game day recipes, shall we? I love to make Antipasto Skewers. Such an easy and healthier appetizer to share with guest. I find that food on a stick always goes over well when your watching a sporting event. I find that prepping all the ingredients for the Antipasto Skewers is best. Then spend your timing skewering all the items on — any order works. I found most of the products at World Market. The only items you’ll need to pick up from the grocery store is the fresh mozzarella, basil, and grape tomatoes! The rest is found at World Market!

Let’s also stop and take a moment of silence for the Columbus Peppered Salame. It’s amazing. I bought it a few years back at World Market on one of my many shopping trips. Brought it over with cheese and crackers to my inlaws and now everyone is hooked on the Columbus Peppered Salame. I’m required to bring it to every family event!
