Spring Entertaining with Musco Olives
I am hosting Easter year and in the throws of planning the menu, decor and such. It is a project I enjoy immensely as there is little I find more satisfying than our family sitting around the table laughing and enjoying a delicious meal.
I was inspired by this lovely collection of dishes at Williams Sonoma that can be used for a variety of Spring occasions. Since we will be hosting an Easter lunch, mid-day, I am planning a menu that will be relatively simple to prepare since I will not have as much time.
For the starter, I have decided to create a traditional cheese and charcuterie platter. It is easy to prepare and is my in-law’s appetizer of choice so I know it will not disappoint. I include 2-4 cheeses (be sure to vary the shape, flavor and color), 1-2 meats (like salami or prosciutto), grapes, and nuts. This year, my spread will also include delicious Pearls® Specialities Garlic Stuffed Olives. Olives are one of the easiest appetizers to serve…no preparation required, easy to eat and always a crowd pleaser. They can be ordered on Amazon, which is another bonus.
These Pearls® Olives are absolutely delectable…plump, crunchy and bursting with flavor. I will also be serving the Pimento Stuffed and Blue Cheese Stuffed specialties for variety. Just add crackers, fruit and your spread is complete!
My strategy is to keep everyone busy snacking on this delicious spread so I can put the finishing touches on our meal without anyone hovering about the kitchen. 😉
These Pearls® Specialty Olives will be a hit at your Easter or Spring parties!
