Catering for lunch

I had some friends over for lunch the other day so threw a few things together.

I made some mini quiches - very easy to do.
Just put together into a bowl the following ingredients: 1 grated carrot, 1 grated zucchini, a cup of sliced mushrooms, a small tin of corn, some shaved sliced ham, parsley, chives, salt and pepper, and then about 4 eggs.  Add some tasty cheese, some parmesan cheese, and some thickened cream or sour cream.

You can add anything you like really... like asparagus, chorizo, etc.

Whisk it all up.

Line a greased muffin tray with some puff pastry (I divide each sheet into 9 squares) and add some of the mixture into each cup.


Bake for about half an hour on 180 degrees C.


I also served a Bocconcini salad - very easy. Just some baby spinach, sliced bocconcini, sliced roma tomatoes, arranged nicely on a platter and drizzled with rock salt, extra virgin olive oil, and balsamic vinegar just before serving.


Some Smoked salmon, cream cheese, and capers on mini toast.


And a tray of sandwiches (ham, colby cheese, avocado and chicken, lettuce, mayonaise and colby cheese) on wholemeal bread.


And my apple and walnut cake for dessert with yummy tea (my fave is Dilmah tea with Rose and French Lavender)....
My dear friends also brought some delicious hand made rocky road... and some Lindt balls for dessert... nommmmy!
