This snowman bocconcini recipe is the perfect Christmas party dish.
Serve it as an impressive side salad, or line up the snowmen to make fun appetizers. Just plate them in one long row with a few rosemary twig ‘Christmas trees.’
I like to keep it simple and arrange the snowmen on top of a crisp arugula salad, but you can serve them with any salad you like. A tomato, red onion, and pomegranate salad, or even a Christmas Caesar salad will work wonderfully.
