Description
Appetizers or canapés always bring in a surprise element when served to Guests as its decorative food, eaten in one bite with hands. I always look out for ideas to impress loved ones through food and canapés are my favorite cheats way to win hearts. This idea, I did steal from the cover of the salami packet that I had in my freezer. ( shameless me ) Wanting to finish off the salami which I usually use for sandwiches, this idea seemed to be easy and impressive. Made good use of it when I had my friend drop in home for dinner. We had so much fun eating these making sure not to drop a bit of these and make a mess. The taste was sublime with simple ingredients put together to create a visual treat. This was the most impressive dish on the table which took me just a few minutes to assemble. Food has its own way to bring in a new twist each day. Which is why I am madly, deeply in love with it. So peeps fall in love over and over again as the entire world revolves around being loved the most.
