Party Time!

Here are some pictures from a gathering I had at my house. I wanted to share some great appetizer ideas with you. The following foods are all vegetarian, however meats could be added to these foods if desired.

Olive Tapenade that goes great with either pita chips or toast.
It is a very easy treat to create, using a blender process the following ingredients:
capers, olives of your choice, olive oil, garlic cloves, salt & pepper!



Caprese platter & cheese platter

For the Cheese platter, gather up your favorite cheeses with your favorite crackers and arrange them on a simple platter. Using whatever herbs you choose to use, arrange them in a platter in a manner that is pleasing to the eye. Everyone loves cheese so you really can't go wrong with your choice of selection.

For the Caprese platter, arrange your tomatoes in the center, as well as fresh basil leaves. On the outskirts of your tomato and basil arrange slices of mozzarella cheese and drizzle the entire platter with freshly ground pepper and your finest olive oil.




Here we have a selection of salads. They are all different. We have a bean salad which includes onions, black beans, parsley, tomatoes, red wine vinegar, salt & pepper. A middle eastern Tabouli salad using parsley, onions, cucumber, tomatoes, bulgur wheat, lemon juice, olive oil, salt & pepper.





Here was the final look!



Hope you enjoyed these fun ideas, I will elaborate more on these recipes later on in individual postings!
