Pamela's Posh Picks: Party Bites

Jul 20 2012 · 1 comment · Posh Picks ·0

With the summer entertaining season in full swing, I’d thought this would be a perfect week to share some of my favorite festive appetizers, along with a few tips and tricks for serving.

Here we go…

Ricotta Cheesecake and Fruit Lollipops

These adorable sweet snacks are so easy to put together.  To make them even faster, you could substitute store-bought pound cake for the ricotta cheesecake.

Petite Crudité baskets

I love the idea behind these crudité baskets!  You could use any small container, perhaps a berry basket or even an espresso cup.  Served with a larger bowl of yogurt-based veggie dip, you have a healthy and refreshing appetizer for your guests.

Baby Basil Boats

This Caprese salad on a stick is simple to prepare and so delicious.  I can almost taste the mouthful of bursting fresh flavor!

Starry Night Taco Bites

Tostito’s scoop chip are so versatile, they make a great “nest” for a variety of fillings.  I love how this taco bite is dressed up with the piped star shaped sour cream ~ what a great detail!

Pizza Cones

How fun are these pizza cones?  The tortilla shaped cones offer a variety of possibilities for fillings.  How about Boursin cheese, yellow pepper, watercress and a hint of red onion?  Just use your imagination!

It’s a great time of year to entertain with the warm weather and bounty of fresh produce.  Check your garden or local farmer’s market and get creative.  Any appetizer can be party-ready with a few simple touches, whether a hand-tied ribbons on the serving skewers or a bouquet of fresh herbs or flowers on a serving tray, presentation can make all the difference!

I imagine a twilight Summer party would be just delightful under this Starry Night tent in this week’s petite oil painting:

Enjoy!

xo,

Pamela
