Having guests over for dinner? Quick appetizer ideas

Inviting friends and family over for dinner is always a great opportunity to spend time together and enjoy conversation. For this reason, when planning your dinner menu, we recommend opting for quick-to-prepare dishes that will allow you to relax during the evening, without necessarily having to spend half the evening cooking!

It’s helpful to give ample space to appetizers, so you can prepare everything in advance.

What’s better than tasty appetizers to delight your guests?

Slices of Pane Mascolo are perfect for garnishing and serving as an appetizer, because their crunchy texture will keep them perfect until the final moment!

Here are some ideas for tasty garnishes with a touch of originality.

• Slices of whole-wheat Mascolo bread with cooked ham, crescenza cheese, basil pesto, and toasted pine nuts.
  These will flavor your delicious bruschetta, giving it a sophisticated touch, worthy of the most celebrated chefs!
• Slices of toasted bread with mozzarella slices and sun-dried tomatoes. Garnish with a sprinkling of chili pepper and basil leaves. Imagine the intoxicating aroma!
• Slices of oat bread with salmon and a drizzle of citrus robiola cheese. You’re probably wondering how to make it, so here’s the recipe: place the robiola cheese in a bowl, add a mix of grated orange and lemon zest, and you’re done!
  Add a very thin slice of lime to the bruschetta for an exotic touch.
• Do your guests love dishes with Asian flavors and colors? Try creating an appetizer with wasabi salmon and green apple!
