Ideas for Summer Appetizers
What are Some Ideas for Summer Appetizers?
When the weather is warm, many people begin to look for food alternatives that are easy to create and can help bring a hint of coolness to a hot day. Summer snacks and finger foods tend to go together. They are easily prepared and even easier to consume. Simple platters of cut fruits such as kiwi, apples, and orange slices make a great appetizer for lunch or dinner. Carrot sticks, broccoli florets, and cherry tomatoes are easy finger foods that will help set the pace for the meal.
Chilled bean dishes are another example of easily and nutritious summer appetizers. Combine cans of wine kidney beans, black beans, and garbanzo beans into a bowl. Add in some diced onion and short sections of green bell pepper. Toss all the ingredients in Italian salad dressing and allow the salad to chill for thirty minutes. This bean salad has a great deal of visual appeal as well as being filling and tasty. Combine the ingredients in a food processor to make a smooth pate that is ideal for spreading on small sections of your favorite toasted bread. For a well rounded appetizer, serve the hummus with sliced black olives and a few cherry tomato halves.
