Savory and Sweet Party Plates
We are on the eve of Thanksgiving and I have a feeling that a few of you {myself included} might be looking for a last minute dish to make tomorrow. Some years the holidays sort of sneak up on me. I know they are coming but time flies by so fast that before I know it…we are days away {or even the night before}. That is why I like to have a few things like this up my sleeve. These over the top plates will look like you have spent hours on them but in reality…it was a quick trip to the grocery store and a few minutes of time.
Both the Savory and Sweet Plate I am showing you are full of delicious everyday items but you can tailor them to fit whatever your family likes. There are not any rules. You will just need a good variety, so that there is something for everyone. I also suggest a dip of some kind. I love taking them to a party, giving them as a hostess gift or even just making them when people come over anytime. We love to play cards and so it works great to have a plate full of goodies to snack on while you play. I hope both of these give you some inspiration for your holidays and all year long.

Savory & Sweet Party Plates
Ingredients
Savory Plate
- breaksticks
- pretzel rounds
- cherry tomatoes
- green olives {stuffed with blue cheese}
- hummus
- dry salami
- mozzarella cheese {cubed}
Sweet Plate
- pound cake {cut into strips}
- pretzel rounds
- fresh raspberries
- dried apricots
- Hershey Kisses

Instructions
- There is not a right or wrong way of making these. I began with the dip in a bowl and then added items around the bowl in a design that I felt would be pleasing to the eye and inviting, so that guests want to dig in!
Notes
- Combine a Sweet and Savory Plate by using a larger platter.
Love this idea!!! Simple but looks amazing. Will definitely be using this in the near future!!! Thanks June
