Steps:
- Prepare a grill for medium-high heat. Push 1 lemon piece to the bottom of a skewer. Lay 2 slices of salami on top of each other, fold in half, then push onto the skewer snugly against the lemon. Wrap a basil leaf around a piece of the cheese, and push them onto the skewer, catching both sides of the leaf if possible. Fold a red pepper strip in half, and add it to the skewer, followed by an artichoke piece and an olive. Repeat from salami to olive twice on the skewer, and top with a lemon piece. Repeat with the remaining skewers. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet.
- Lightly oil the grill grates. Brush the skewered food with the marinade from the artichoke. Lightly drizzle the bread with oil, and season with salt and black pepper. Grill the bread on both sides until browned and crisp, about 3 minutes total; transfer to a serving tray.
- Grill the skewers until grill marks appear and the edges of the artichoke pieces are beginning to brown, about 1 minute per side. If the cheese sticks to the grill, use a metal spatula to loosen. Serve the skewers with the grilled bread, and squeeze with lemon before serving.

I took this to a work luncheon and it disappeared in minutes. This is a great idea for buffet situations, since it is served individually and is easily eaten, even while juggling a plate. You could also add fresh basil leaves and drizzle the entire plate with Balsamic vinegar.

Steps:
- 1. Drain olives and mozzarella balls.
- 2. Onto your skewers, place: 1 black olive 1 grape tomato 1 slice salame 1 mozzarella ball 1 green olive Fold salame slices in half and then half again to form a pie wedge shape. When arranging on the platter, place the "open" edge of the salame up - to create visual appeal.
- 3. Repeat and place onto a platter.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients. Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make your skewers taste their best. Look for ripe fruits and vegetables, and use good-quality cheese and meats.
- Choose a variety of colors and textures. This will make your skewers more visually appealing and interesting to eat. Try to include a mix of soft and crunchy textures, and a variety of colors.
- Marinate your meats and vegetables. This will help them to absorb flavor and cook evenly. For meats, you can use a simple marinade of olive oil, garlic, and herbs. For vegetables, you can use a vinaigrette or a mixture of olive oil and balsamic vinegar.
- Cook your skewers over medium heat. This will help to prevent them from burning. If you are using a grill, you can cook the skewers over direct heat for a few minutes per side, then move them to indirect heat to finish cooking.
- Serve your skewers immediately. They are best enjoyed when they are hot off the grill. You can serve them with a dipping sauce, such as tzatziki sauce or chimichurri sauce.
Conclusion:
Antipasto skewers are a delicious and easy appetizer or snack that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for parties and gatherings, and they are also a great way to use up leftover ingredients. With a little planning, you can create a variety of different skewers that will please everyone at your table.
