    More Tasty Morsels to Have With Drinks - Capsicum Confetti Blinis

     It is so good to serve tasty food when you invite people over for drinks

    One of my favourites is Blinis With Cream Cheese and Smoked Salmon 

    Bu there are times when you have a friend who can't eat Salmon or any fish at all, so I devised this little topping and it is not only pretty but also very tasty

    I bought the Blinis, I used to make them but now you can buy them and keep them in the freezer, all ready when you invite people over for Drinks or Morning Tea 

    You will need

    Packet of Blinis,

    Cream cheese
    2 tablespoons Mayo
    Zest of 1 lemon
    Green, pepper
    Red pepper
    Yellow pepper
    Chives
    Sea Salt and Freshly Ground Black Pepper

    Finally chop the pepper and chives and zest the lemon 
    Season with the salt and pepper
    Mix together 
    Blend the cream cheese and mayo together
    Defrost your Blinis and place on a plate
    Spread the Cream cheese and Mayo over each Blini
    and Sprinkle the Pepper mix over the top 
    Yum


    I was helping my neighbour prepare these tasty morsels for Drinks here at The Village last night
    She suggested that maybe to make eating then easier we mixed the peppers in with the cream cheese mix


    Voila... what a good idea, not quite as pretty but equally as tasty, I have whipped up a few to take to my friends place for drinks tonight


    Then I had my granddaughters over for Morning tea, They brought Cup Cakes,
    For my contribution
    I made a sweet version of the Blini dish

    You need 
    Cream Cheese
    Craisins 
    Freeze dried Raspberries

    I hauled out the Blinis from the freezer,

    Then spread them with the Cream Cheese,
    Pop on a few Craisins
    Crumble the Freeze Dried Raspberries over the Blinis and Voila
    Morning Tea
