Sweet strawberries and mangoes tossed with balsamic vinegar and fresh basil all piled on top of crusty french bread slathered with whipped feta. Does it get any better than that?! I think not! These were one of the many appetizers we served at my sister’s late morning bridal shower. They are the perfect sweet and savory bite for brunch, or just about any other time you want an explosion of wonderful flavors in your mouth. Man oh man, I am drooling now just looking at these. I do believe I will be making these again ASAP!
I love hosting a party or holiday by only serving appetizers. It gives everyone a wide array of options and satisfies my desire to try a little bit of everything. When I go to a restaurant, I have a bad habit of taking forever to order. There are usually too many wonderful things I want to try, or in the few rare instances where I let my family pick the restaurant, there is nothing exciting enough to catch my eye. I typically take the lead when we are deciding on where to dine out, so more often than not, it is the former. I try and convince others to order different things so we can all share, but most of my family likes to order what they know they will like and not take any risks. They keep their entree all to themselves and I have to make the painstaking decision of what to order for myself.

Oooooo I always want to try new things at restaurants and then when I do it always seems like it’s terrible! I need to seriously be more adventurous. But you already know that! What a great appetizers for a party full of ladies!

It stinks when you venture outside of your comfort zone to try something new and it doesn’t pan out, but don’t give up! Once I have a nice new kitchen we will have to have you and the hubs over and make a few things outside the regulars. He can’t say no to a host, right? 😉 Oh, but that’s right, there is still my picky husband who can easily say no to me… haha
