This snowman bocconcini recipe is the perfect Christmas party dish. Serve it as a side salad, or line up the snowmen to make fun appetizers. Just plate them in one long row with a few rosemary twigs '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.
