Happy Holidays from the Diva of Do-Ahead by Diane Phillips
"This book is the follow-up to the successful Perfect Party Food. Happy Holidays from the Diva-of Do-Ahead brings the same how-to and do-ahead approach to creating menus for 12 holidays-with special emphasis on Thanksgiving and Christmas-as well as tips on recipe variations, decorating, and serving."
Crostini Bar
"Crostini are small toasts with toppings that are usually served family-style at the table as an antipasto. I love crostini because you can make simple toppings ahead of time (recipes follow). After a little last-minute arranging, you have a wonderful appetizer with lots of color, texture, and flavor."
Roasted Eggplant Topping
"Roasting eggplant and garlic brings out their sweetness, and this spread, with its spike of baisamic vinegar, is delicious served as a topping for toasted breads."
Sweet Pepper and Parmigiano Topping
"Sweet tender Italian green frying peppers and nutty Parmesan cheese pair up for another delicious topping for toasted breads or crackers. It s also great on sandwiches or burgers. Use authentic imported Parmigiano-Reggiano for this recipe."
Gorgonzola-Walnut Topping
"This topping, made with creamy blue Gorgonzola and toasted walnuts, is terrific on top of toasted bread. Also try it as a spread for crackers and serve some nice red grapes on the side."
