The tasty flavors soak into the mozzarella, making a tasty and versatile snack or appetizer.

Ingredients: 8 ounces fresh mozzarella balls, drained. 2 tablespoons olive oil. 2 cloves garlic, minced. 1 teaspoon dried basil. 1 teaspoon dried oregano. 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes optional. Salt and black pepper, to taste. Fresh basil leaves, for garnish optional.
Instructions: Cut up the garlic and add it to a small bowl. Add the dried basil and oregano, salt, and black pepper. If you want to, you can also add red pepper flakes. After the mozzarella balls have been drained, add them to the bowl and gently toss them to cover them with the marinade. Remove the bowl from the fridge and wrap it in plastic wrap. This will give the flavors time to mix. Let the mozzarella that has been marinated sit out for about 10 minutes before you serve it. If you want, you can add fresh basil leaves as a garnish. Serve as an appetizer or snack.
