Cheese

Look for the Proudly Wisconsin Badge when shopping for cheese. Any brand of Wisconsin Fresh Mozzarella can be used in this recipe.

Instructions

Grease grill grate. Heat grill to medium.
Drain mozzarella balls, reserving the marinade in a bowl. Set mozzarella aside.
Pour 1/4 cup marinade into a large sealable plastic bag. Add vegetables; seal bag and toss to coat. Transfer vegetables to a lightly greased grill grid. Season with salt and pepper.
Grill vegetables, covered, over medium heat for 8-12 minutes or until crisp-tender, turning occasionally.
Meanwhile, whisk balsamic vinegar into remaining marinade. Season with salt and pepper.
Arrange vegetables on a serving platter; top with reserved mozzarella. Drizzle with marinade. Serve with toasts.

Cheesemonger Tip

Fresh, milky mozzarella balls are available in different sizes; ciliegine means “cherry size” in Italian. Marinated ciliegine entails fresh mozzarella balls in a special, flavorful oil-spice mix blend.
