Family picnics, Friday night barbecues and last minute invitations to a friend's potluck doesn't always require that you bring a dish to share, but more often than not it's a good idea to bring a little something even if it means a bottle of wine, olives or some good cheese. But, if you like to cook and want to bring a little something to the party that doesn't take up too much time in the kitchen, here are a few simple ideas that are quick and easy to make and celebrate summer's freshest ingredients.
Summer tomatoes, garlic, sweet and spicy garden basil and tangy balsamic vinaigrette over toasted baguette slices are heavenly and a snap to make!
Fresh figs stuffed with sweetened ricotta and drizzled in honey is a a great appetizer to bring to a wine pairing party.
And lastly, one of my favorites is peppadew peppers stuffed with herbed goat cheese. The sweet and vinegary peppers mixed with the tangy and creamy goat cheese is a marriage made in heaven. One quick stop to the grocery store and a maximum of 20 minutes pre-party and you've got yourself some great potluck or party appetizers.
