Caprese skewers, but hold the mozzarella — because we’re plant-based, fabulous, and frankly, nobody misses the dairy anyway.
We’re talking juicy cherry tomatoes, basil leaves fresher than your last Tinder date, and creamy vegan cheese that won’t ghost your gut.
Skewer them like you skewer bad choices — firmly, confidently, with style.
Now, pair that garden-fresh magic with a coffee cake so moist, it should come with a warning label and a hotline.
Together? These bites scream “I brunch better than you,” but with zero cruelty and full flavor.
This isn’t a recipe. It’s a mood.
