Easy Party Appetizers and Decoration Tips!!

Hey all,



I want to share with you what I prepared tonight for our family guests, it was a welcoming party for my new baby brother as well as a Christmas dinner. I love spending time making and decorating food in a nice presentable way in short period of time and with simple ingredients. I enjoy appetizers a lot especially when it comes to decorating. Today's theme was simple farm style dinner consisting of sausage, cheese, my ultimate chicken pie, mozzarella and tomato skewers, and my sister's creme caramel cake that I will let her share it in this blog because it's so delicious!!

I will concentrate on the appetizers in this post and more about the decoration tips:

1. Use your wooden cutting boards as platters, you don't have to spend your money on fancy platters if you don't want especially that it gives a really nice touch if it was used for cheese, sausages and smoked meat as well as toasted bread

2. Use decorating papers on the cutting boards for a nicer look

3. Use glass bowls and glasses to put your veggies or your skewers to present each individually to your guests so they can have their own bowls of appetizer or make a sophisticated crudités platter and present on a nice silver tray that has a classic look to it

4. Spend your money on creative plates and bowls if you want and love cooking and want to improve your skills in decorating and you enjoy making fun themed dinners, lunch parties or even for brunch and breakfast

As I mentioned earlier that my theme was farm style dinner, very rustic simple and cozy plus you can find your decorating tools from your cooking ones such as the cutting board which I really love the idea of it for cheese and meat because it's very French style!

The recipes will be posted later!!

Love xoxo,

Maha

Keto Katayef for Ramadan!

Hello All, Ramadan Kareem and wish you all the best in health and love! As I am in Keto, I have been searching many recipes for all the foods that I am craving and because, we're in Ramadan, I have been craving Katayef so, I found a recipe on Instagram (account: @f6m_keto) and  I had to try it. I amended the recipe a little bit because the batter was too thin but as a first time making Katayef, it was good that I made a double batch the next day!  The fillings were all invented by me and the flavors I like. Ingredients:  For the batter: - 4 TBS Almond Flour - 2 TBS Cream Cheese - 2 Eggs - 1 TBS Sweetener (I used SweetLeaf Stevia) - 2 TSP Vanilla Extract - Pinch of Salt For the fillings: 1st Filling: - 2 TBS Coconut, Shredded and Unsweetened - 3 TBS Walnuts, Chopped - 2 TSP Rose Water - Pinch of Cardamom, Grounded - 1 Sachet of Sweetener 2nd Filling: - 2 TBS Pistachios, Grounded - 2 TSP Rose Water - Pinch of Cardamom, Grounded - 1 Sachet ...
