The vegetable platter tray above is a very subtle twist but by using the eggplant as a dip bowl creates a bit of a wow factor. By layering the vegetables on top of purple and green kale it creates a stunning and elegant presentation. We also love the crackers in the pretty container and the scale is a very nice touch as well. Beautiful display if we do say so ourselves.

One of our most cherished salads is the Ceaser salad. It’s got that creamy dressing, romaine lettuce, croutons, and of course parmesan cheese. How can you not love it?

Try out these Ceaser salad spears next time you entertain and give your old salad bowl a break for the night. These spears don’t even require any silverware which is always a plus. You can get the recipe and directions HERE and whip up a batch of these for your next party, or even just an appetizer for dinner sometime this week. They are so good!!!

Food doesn’t always have to be gourmet or fancy in order for people to really enjoy it and make it memorable. Creating a stylish food presentation is what really makes your party stand out and also creates a great conversation piece for your guests to mingle and chit chat about your hard work that went into putting everything together.
