Italian Skewers

• 1 (8-oz.) block mozzarella cheese
• 16 (4-inch) Genoa salami slices
• 1 (14-oz.) can small artichoke hearts, drained and halved
• 1 pint grape tomatoes
• 1 (6-oz.) jar large pitted Spanish olives, drained
• 16 (6-inch) wooden skewers
• 1 (16-oz.) bottle balsamic-basil vinaigrette
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

1. Cut cheese evenly into 16 cubes. Wrap salami slices around cheese cubes. Thread cubes, artichoke hearts, tomatoes, and olives alternatively on skewers. Place skewers in a large plastic container or baking dish.
2. Stir together vinaigrette and lemon juice. Pour dressing mixture over skewers; cover tightly, and chill 8 hours. Remove skewers from marinade, discarding marinade before serving.
3. Note: For testing purposes only, we used Ken's Steak House Balsamic & Basil Vinaigrette.
