Fruit Caprese Kabobs transform the classic Caprese salad into a colorful, bite-sized appetizer that’s fun to assemble and even better to eat. Sweet fruits, creamy mozzarella, tender tortellini, and savory prosciutto are layered on skewers and finished with a drizzle of balsamic reduction for a perfect balance of sweet, salty, and fresh flavors.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 small seedless watermelon
  • 1 small cantaloupe
  • 1 pint strawberries
  • 2 peaches
  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes
  • 1 pint blueberries
  • 1 pint mozzarella balls
  • 1 pound tortellini, cooked
  • 1 bunch fresh basil
  • 1 package prosciutto
  • Reduced balsamic vinegar
  • Wooden skewers

Instructions

  1. Prepare the fruit
    Use a melon baller to scoop balls from the watermelon and cantaloupe. Slice the peaches into wedges and cut large strawberries in half if needed.

  2. Prepare other ingredients
    Cook the tortellini according to package directions and allow it to cool.

  3. Assemble the kabobs
    Arrange all ingredients on a table and begin skewering them in different patterns and combinations—for example:

    1. Mozzarella → tomato → basil

    2. Watermelon → prosciutto → mozzarella

    3. Tortellini → peach → basil

  4. Arrange on platter
    Place the finished kabobs on a large serving platter.

  5. Finish and serve
    Drizzle with reduced balsamic vinegar, or serve the balsamic on the side for dipping.

Notes

  • Use short appetizer skewers or cocktail sticks for party servings.
  • Chill the assembled kabobs for 20–30 minutes before serving for a refreshing bite.
  • Add fresh mint or arugula leaves for extra herbal notes.
  • Great for summer parties, brunch spreads, and potlucks.
