Ingredients

  • 1 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup mini mozzarella balls
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped basil
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil
  • Kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste
  • 15 mini phyllo shells
  • Balsamic glaze

Instructions

  • Combine the tomatoes, basil, mozzarella balls, salt, pepper and olive oil in a bowl. Stir until coated then taste for seasoning.
