[quote=Anonymous]I always keep a few packages of smoked salmon and a few well wrapped frozen bagettes. Add cream cheese and cucumber, and people think you're rather decadent. Also keep finger food type apps - spanakopita, wings, mini spring rolls, potstickers, etc. Serve with a fancy sauce and feel great. Fries can even feel fancy if you take 45 seconds with your lender to whip up a garlic aioli. (Not as hard as it sounds). Then there are he other suspects- bagel bites, nuggets... Great for kids, but in a pinch, out them on a fancy plate with some other stuff. I guarantee no adult will pass them up, ever. Basic crudités, like carrots, celery, sugar snapped peas keep well for a week or two in the fridge. Pita, hummus, olive tapenade are easy to whip up if you don't have them premade in the house. Just keep an extra few cans of chickpeas and olives, and a jar of tahini in the fridge. Almost everyone has olive oil and lemon juice around to round that out.[/quote]
