Today we played a rain make-up match and for rain make-ups you don't need to provide lunch. But the classy thing to do is to provide some light and tasty snacks.
I made an olive tray (I forgot to take a photo - sorry)
Then I made mini fruit kabobs on little bamboo sticks. I bought the fruit spears in sticks at Trader Joe's and they are super easy to cut into mini cubes. I bought the little bamboo sticks at Party City and you can use them for all sorts of appetizers.
Then I put some chicken salad into little phyllo cups and garnished with mini springs of rosemary. I bought the phyllo cups in the frozen section at Henry's they are organic. The chicken salad is pre-made from Trader Joe's and the rosemary is from my garden.
Then I made mini lemon tarts garnished with a single blueberry and tiny mint leaf. I bought the shortbread tart shells at Ralph's and the lemon curd, blueberries and mint at Trader Joe's. I want to grow my own mint, it is expensive to buy and doesn't stay fresh for very long.
So those are the snacks I made for the tennis match - everyone loved them.
