Hotel Room Chef

It's hard to be a chef when you're traveling and do not have access to a kitchen. Tonight I'm in Maryland with the folks to see my nieces dance recitals and ... well ... this ain't bad for hotel room cooking! :o)

One of my aunts posted it on Facebook a few weeks ago ... tasty and cute. One day I'll have to make the olive penguins and these ladybugs at the same time! :)

Ingredients:
Cherry Tomatoes (cut in half, and a small slice in one end)
Fresh Basil
Fresh Mozzarella (cut in slices)
Black or Kalamata Olives 

(It said to use black, but being in a hotel room and not having a can opener, I got some Kalamata olives from an olive bar.)

To assemble, lay a basil leaf on top of a piece of the mozzarella cheese. Take an olive and cut the end off of it to create the head of the ladybug. Make small pieces of the remaining olive bits to "decorate" the back of the bug with it's traditional black spots.

Too cute. Super Delicious! Easy to make, even on the go!!!
