what you need
- 12 oz Kraft Cheese Cubes ~ (6 oz. sharp cheddar cheese, 6 oz. pepper jack)
- 12 oz. button mushrooms
- 12 oz. green olives
- 12 oz. black olives
- 12 oz. artichokes in water
- 1 bag cooked cleaned peeled shrimp
- Grape tomatoes
- 1 tsp. chopped basil
- 2 Tbsp. chopped red onion
- 1 cup EVOO ~ extra virgin olive oil
- 2/3 cup red wine vinegar
- 1 Tbsp. sugar
- Salt
- 1/2 tsp. pepper
- 1/2 tsp. red pepper flakes
make it
Mix all ingredients together and let marinate in refrigerator for 4 hours.
I serve this appetizer in a scooped out watermelon with an American Flag inserted in the watermelon ~ use party toothpicks.
I have also used Kraft Italian Dressing for the marinade instead of the EVOO, red wine vinegar, sugar, salt, pepper and red pepper flakes.
Notes
This is just a basic recipe ~ I use lots of other good ingredients such as cauliflower, peppers, and salmon, what I might have on hand at the time.
I hope that you try my recipe and enjoy it as much as my family and friends do.
