Tantalizing Trays, what a great way to describe this week’s Sunday Supper! My Tomato Basil Soup Shooters fit right in with week’s theme. Who wouldn’t like a shot of tomato soup and bite of savory cheddar grilled cheese to start the party?
I recently started a new business hosting tasting parties and I’m always on the lookout for new ways to present small bites. I’m just as excited to serve tastes this way at home parties or a small get-together.
Appetizers, fruit and cheese, mini sandwiches and brownie bites arranged in groups or presented on boards and trays easily whets my appetite.
I like this better served cold like Gazpacho. You can serve these with a dash of hot sauce if you like!
My turkey baster makes filling the shooter cups fast and easy.
Thanks Constance of The Foodie Army Wife for hosting this fun party!
