This was An Easy and Pretty Appetizer Platter that platter took me less than 5 minutes to create.

The first layer is fresh herbs for a bit of color and heavenly scent. You can use rosemary, sage, thyme and even lettuce leaves in a pinch. Make sure all are washed and dried.

    This is lovely, Laura. The addition of the aromatic herbs is wonderful. We love to toast pecans several different ways..I recently found sugar free cinnamon-sugar and sprinkle that on John's pecans before toasting due to his diabetes. They taste great!

    Laura, this is so pretty! We didn't get to entertain this year. We just got home and rushed to get our decor up tonight. I snapped a quick pic of the mantel and got a post up in record time…lol! Hope you can stop by! Merry Christmas to you and your beautiful family, my friend! God bless!

    This tray is gorgeous, Laura! It is making me very hungry. Laying the herbs about under all is a super idea. This really appeals to me since I am so into herbs and they do give that extra bit of aromatic pleasure to most anything, food or decor. Thanks for sharing your wonderful and simple tray with your readers. Have a beautiful Christmas and a happy and blessed 2014!
