Want a cool appetizer for your picnic wedding or pre/post wedding party? Try Watermelon Salad with Feta, Cilantro, and Serrano Chile. A combination of refreshing taste and fireworks with each bite!

Use seedless watermelon, square the feta, and add a slice of Serrano Chilies. Fast, easy, and they will wow guests. My guests love them, why not see if yours will too?

Dessert and Cheese Course in One!

Photo and recipe from: http://nami-nami.blogspot.com/

Your favorite brie, fresh strawberries, a sprig of mint and this sweet mouthful can serve as a cheese and dessert course in one! Even the cooking challenged bride (or her mother) can pull these together.  All you need to do is be able to wield a knife, wash strawberries and trim the mint and join them all on a single decorative toothpick! Simple and sweet. What more could you ask?
