Real simple party appetizers!

Impromptu get-togethers and meets ups are the best kind of time! Quality time spent with our loved ones, what more do we need? Not caring about the décor much, such unplanned parties are always all about the food.

I personally love hogging on quick snacks that are easy to make and eat. For kids and my in-laws, it always gets a little tricky as to what I should make or bake. Cakes, drinks like mojitos and wine are common and can be attained from any store. The real work dawns when dishes have to be prepared for whatever amount of people coming over.

Honey Mustard Salad Dressing


Here’s my take of the real simple party appetizers that all of us love gorging. Have a look-
•Cheese Quesadillas: Super easy to make, this cheesy dish has always been a crowd puller. Here is the recipe- Get tortillas and cheese. Heat the broiler and place the tortillas on the baking sheet. Sandwich cheese in between another layer of tortillas. Bake it until it is golden brown and sprinkle some seasonings over it. Cut it into desirable triangle shapes and serve it the salsa sauce. Tomato and onion sauce would do too.

•Chickpea and Mint Crostini: This fresh salad recipe is absolutely a hit for all ages. Quick delightful vibrant looking salad, there is nothing extra ordinary that is required to make it. Here is the recipe- Boil chickpeas or put them overnight in water. Add juicy pomegranate seeds and chopped mint for an exciting and renewed topping! If you please, you can try pouring in the healthy honey mustard salad dressing all over it for a quick pungent taste.

•Bread pizzas: Who doesn’t like pizzas? This flat bread pleases one and all. Miniature versions of pizza, use wheat/ white bread instead of the big dough bread and add the desired toppings. Get a good pizza sauce in India like Veeba sauces to add a delightful taste to your little pizza bread!
