What snacks are good to serve with wine?!


Question: What snacks are good to serve with wine!?
I am having a girls movie night aka estrogen fest at my place tonight and dont have time to prepare something! What are some good store bought snacks I can buy or something I can whip up fairly easily to go with some red wine!. Anything low in fat or calorie concious would be great!Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Cheese and sausage tray, artichoke hearts, olives, bruschetta!.!.!.those would all work nicely! You could also pick up a spinach or roasted red pepper dip and serve that with crackers or bread!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

For red wines you want Manchego cheese!. It's made for reds!. Otherwise get some Brie!.

To offset the calories, slice the cheese very thin and get whole wheat crackers!. Then do a veggie tray w/ yogurt and tons of fruit!. Grapes and citrus fruit should go with reds, very sweet fruit (watermelon, apples) will clash!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

If you get cheese make sure it is a hard cheese (like Edam or aged cheddar)!. Soft cheeses normally only work with white wine!. I think pizza would go well with red wine!. Get one of the healthy frozen kind with whole grain crust and it'll be easy and quick!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Crisp apple slices (squeeze a little lemon on them so they don't turn brown), seedless grapes, sharp cheddar cheese slices, brie cheese (room temperature), cubed Swiss and pepper jack cheeses, sliced mozzarella, rolled ham slices, assorted crackers!. Melon wrapped in prosciutto!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Flatbread, cheese, roasted peppers and tomatoes drizzed with olive oil and basil, pita bread with hummus, grapes and apples!.!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

in the supermarket you can buy tubs of hummus all fancy in the refridgerated deli section and you could serve that with some pita chips!.!.!.and also a fruit platter would be goodWww@FoodAQ@Com
