new years menu
We are hosting 3 couples (so 8 ppl total) for NYE. I am making cocktail party food. Two people are vegetarians so I am making almost everything veg friendly... does this menu seem ok?
Veggies and hummus grape leaves peppadew peppers cheeses (crackers, baguette, etc) olives gougeres cheddar olives (basically green olives wrapped n cheddar dough and baked) marinated mini mozz balls dried apricots stuffed with stilton and baked fennel parm dip with garlic crostini red pepper feta dip with pita chips stuffed mushrooms
for the non veg things - smoked salmon on endive with lemon dill creme, and baked salmon cakes with avocado-cilantro dip
not sure about dessert yet - fruit of some sort, "crack" (saltines covered in caramel and chocolate), mini mexican chocolate crackle cookies, and either mini apple tarlets or phyllo shells filled with lemon mascarpone cream and topped with blueberry jam.

Can I come ;) it sounds great. The only change I'd consider is adding a big salad.

Haha I even have a backup of my favorite snack, ritz crackers with mascarpone and red pepper jelly, in case we run low on food (which i doubt will happen!). i want to do finger foods so no salad, but the veg platter with have peppers, carrots, celery, cucumbers, and grape tomatoes, so it's salad-esque.

Re: new years menu
I think it sounds great but considering 4 people eat meat, I would definitely have something non vegetarian for a variation. JMO anyway

Duh, I probably should have said... we keep kosher, so we wouldn't have meat stuff with cheesy stuff.
