Step 1: Cut cherry tomatoes in half, lengthwise. Slice olives in half lengthwise, too.

Step 2: Place each tomato half cut side down on a cutting board. Carefully cut a slit down the back to create wings. Gently wiggle your knife to slightly separate the wings.

Step 3: Drizzle a small amount of balsamic glaze onto each slice of mozzarella.

Step 4: Place a fresh basil leaf on top of the glazed mozzarella.

Step 5: Set a tomato half on top of the basil leaf, cut side down. Add one piece of black olive to the front of each tomato half to create the ladybug’s head. Use a bottle of balsamic glaze or a toothpick to gently dot the back of each tomato to create ladybug spots. Place each caprese ladybug on a Ritz cracker and enjoy!

So, next time you’re looking for a snack that’s both adorable and delicious, just remember: these Caprese Ladybugs are here to bug you in the best way possible! Grab one before they fly off the plate—because once they’re gone, you’ll be swatting for more!
