Quick & Easy Summer Snacks

07/09/2012

Hello Junkies,

I want to share some of my snack ideas if you are entertaining on the run and don’t necessarily want to serve potato chips and cheese whiz

Cold Cuts: When in a hurry, pick up spicy sorpresatta or genoa salami as it goes well with cheese, it fills you up and it makes it easier to enjoy those delicious cocktails.

Say Cheese! Here is a no brainier and must have on any social gathering. Mozzarella, Havarti, Old Cheddar, Gouda, Brie, the sky is the limit! If you are on a budget get yourself a couple marble cheese slab and voila! You’ve got yourself a cheese platter

If you want to think outside of the box, use a wooden board to display your meat and cheese for a cooler look. Fold meet in half and secure with a toothpick. Squirt some regular mustard and some Dijon in a corner of the board for an impromptu dipping area

And of course my go to snacks this summer are Guacamole and Sangria (serves 6)

Guacamole

  • 6 Avocados
  • Cilantro
  • 1 Onion
  • 2Limes
  • Salt
  • Hot Sauce (optional)

White Wine Sangria

  • 2 Bottles of Pinot Grigio
  • 1 Bottle of Orange Italian Soda
  • 1 Limeade
  • 2 Containers of strawberries
  • 2 container of blueberries
  • 2 containers of blackberries
  • 2 containers of raspberries

Other quick tricks are mini bread sticks, tortilla chips, crackers and olives
