Party Panache, Italiano Morsi
I’ve been busy this week hosting the Gulf Coast Bloggers
It was a challenge getting ready for the September meeting at my house the day after Labor Day
After throwing my family out the door Monday morning encouraging my family to leave early to beat the traffic Monday, I got busy shoveling toys and laundry prepping for the meeting
This simple little Italiano Morso, Italian bite, is something you can assemble in minutes
It looks pretty and can be eaten in one bite~ Perfect for parties, tailgates, picnics, any type of gathering 🏈
I used Pepperidge Farm thin white bread, toasted and spread with a thin layer of pesto, and cut into small squares. A small piece of Asiago sandwich sliced cheese, 1 piece of salami folded and a piece of sweet red pepper
Endless possibilities here, but the secret to these morsi is to not get carried away, and keep them truly bite sized
Be sure to have bowls or jars about for handy pick disposal, adding picks to relay the message
I served the Italiano Morsi in margarita glasses
Unexpected serving pieces can really elevate a simple dish to party fare
You can place them in several areas, by the drinks, on side tables or in several places on the buffet
Italiano Morsi
Equipment

Notes
This is similar to another one of my go to party favorites, Pasta Lollipop Trees
You might also like this Antipasto Flatbread which has artichoke hearts and mushrooms along with pesto and salami
Party On!
I’ll be sharing more party tips, ideas and a buffet tablescape from this meeting soon

What a perfect little party bite Jenna! What a treat for the Gulf Coast bloggers to meet at your beach house! I know they must have been awed by your creativity and hospitality 🙂
Shucks, would have loved to have been able to sample some of your recipes! Looks like it was fun!
I know, darn! Another time I hope! >
Jenna, A blogger gathering sounds like fun and with your delicious munchies everyone must have been thrilled! I love these little bites and I will definitely use this idea! Thanks~~Linda
thanks Linda, couldn’t be easier! Yes, we have a ton of fun, our group is small and more social than serious 🙂 >
Sounds like you have been one busy lady! The party appetizer looks and sounds yummy! I can’t wait to see more of your decorations! The one “teaser” of the pumpkin was very enticing! 🙂 ~Rhonda
ha, yes my life has been running crazy lately, I am officially taking today OFF! thanks Rhonda! >
How I love food on a stick! These look like a fun option for lunches too!!
Your tasty treats are always good, but what impresses me is that you hosted a group of bloggers. I haven’t had the opportunity to meet many in person and I think that would be very special.
Wish I was a Gulf Coast Blogger! How fun! I am in love with these little tidbits. Pinning for the next appetizer party! They are so pretty too. Email me and tell me how you got this group going.
Wow fun! looks amazing! yumm
I love adding a couple picks to the disposal plates so folks know what to do-great idea:@)
Oh wow! I’m taking those to my next pot luck for my Bible study group! Thanks for a terrific idea! 🙂
