16 servings
  • 8 ounces mozzarella balls (or bocconccini)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 6 ounces pepper jack cheese (sliced, or another variety of flavored cheese)
  • 6 ounces sharp cheddar cheese (sliced)
  • 6 ounces manchego cheese (or Gruyere cheese, sliced)
  • 6 ounces Parmesan cheese (or Gouda cheese, Asiago cheese, sliced)
  • 8 ounces peppered salame
  • 8 ounces salami
  • 8 ounces prosciutto
  • 8 ounces ham
