Sweet & Savory: A Rainbow of Health and Happiness! 🍓🍊🍰
Burrata & Cherry Tomato Baguettes, Pomegranate Apple Pecan Feta Salad, Fruit Medley, Homemade Rice Krispies, Walnut & Fig Brie Bowl
It was finally my turn to host a friends gathering, and I wanted to make sure the food was not only delicious but also easy to prepare—because who has hours to spend in the kitchen, right? 😅 I whipped up a few of my favorite dishes, and let me tell you, they were a hit!
First up, I made my special burrata cherry tomato baguettes with fresh basil leaves. They were simple to assemble—just toast some crispy baguette slices, top them with creamy burrata, juicy cherry tomatoes, and a few basil leaves—and voila! A refreshing, savory treat that looks as beautiful as it tastes.
Then, I couldn't resist making my favorite apple, pomegranate, feta, and pecan salad. The sweetness of the apples, tart pomegranate, creamy feta, and crunchy toasted pecans is a combo I can't get enough of. It’s fresh, flavorful, and so easy to toss together!
For a little something extra, I also made fig jam brie topped with honey toasted walnuts. Just warm up some brie, top it with fig jam and a handful of walnuts—baked for a few minutes—and you’ve got a melty, savory bite that’s perfect for snacking. 🍇🧀
I also wanted something light and refreshing, so I made a fruit medley salad with a mix of all my favorite seasonal fruits. It was a colorful, vibrant dish that complemented everything else perfectly.
To satisfy any sweet cravings, I couldn’t resist baking a batch of homemade low-fat butter cookies. These little treats are buttery, melt-in-your-mouth good, and way lighter than your usual cookies. I’m all about satisfying my sweet tooth while keeping it guilt-free! 🍪
The best part? These dishes were all so easy to make, and I had them plated up in an aesthetic way in less than an hour. Yep, you heard that right—under an hour. The perfect friend hosting dishes: quick, healthy, and absolutely delicious. My friends devoured everything, and we had such a great time together!
If you’re looking for easy, crowd-pleasing recipes for your next gathering, these are definitely worth a try! 💕 (will post recipes soon.. :)
