PLATTERS FOR ENTERTAINING

What can you do when you have people coming for drinks and have no time. These are some delicious platters that can be prepared in a matter of minutes. Soft blue cheese, crumbly cheese, serrano ham or prosciutto, salami, biscuits, dry figs, walnuts, pecans and anything else you can find in the fridge or pantry! Yummo! 😄😜 Cucumber, serrano ham or prosciutto, dolmades, white asparagus. Add salt and pepper to the cucumber and a splash of olive oil just before serving. Add a few vegetables to cold meats. I like a variety of biscuits to serve with the cheeses and deli platters, but a variety of breads and wraps, sliced and warm, also go extremely well with deli platters.
