Savoury Platter Ideas

  • Vegetable sticks (carrot, capsicum, blanched asparagus, celery)
  • Cherry tomatoes, halved
  • Tomato, feta and basil on toothpicks (cherry tomato half either end, with a piece of basil and a piece of feta in between)
  • Cucumber rounds with feta on top (slice peeled cucumber, cut into thickish rounds and place a piece of feta on top)  You can place a tiny piece of something red on top of the feta for effect, i.e. sundried tomato or red capsicum
  • Cucumber rounds with lite cream cheese and smoked salmon
  • Hummus
  • Tzatziki (yoghurt dip).  You can make your own by combining low fat plain yoghurt with grated cucumber, a little garlic and black pepper
  • Rice crackers
  • Small pieces of pita bread baked until crisp
  • Baby new potatoes steamed until just tender.  Cool then cut in half horizontally, top with lite sour cream and a tiny blob of pesto or chutney
  • Asparagus spears lightly blanched, then plunged into cold water.  Drain and refrigerate to crisp up
