Ingredients:

• 1 cup dill pickles, sliced into rounds
• 1 cup cheddar cheese, grated

Calories per serving (approximate): 120 kcal per skewer

Steps:

1. Prepare Pickles: Slice dill pickles into rounds, ensuring they are large enough to accommodate skewering.
2. Create Gratin Mixture: In a bowl, combine grated cheddar cheese, mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, Dijon mustard, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
3. Skewer Assembly: Take a pickle round and place a small spoonful of the gratin mixture on top. Press another pickle round onto the mixture, creating a "sandwich." Skewer the pickle gratin "sandwich" with a wooden skewer. Repeat for each skewer.
4. Broil or Grill: Preheat your broiler or grill. Place the skewers on a baking sheet or grill pan. Broil or grill for 2-3 minutes on each side or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the pickles are slightly charred.
5. Serve: Arrange the Pickle Gratin Skewers on a platter and serve immediately.

Note: Experiment with different types of pickles, cheeses, or additional seasonings to tailor these skewers to your taste preferences.
