I'm always looking for good recipe ideas especially with regard to drink, One of my favorite playgrounds. When I fall on an alloy of flavors that I like, I noted internally and try to find more than one vote during re-test! Here is a simple, a trio of sauces dips dive buddies in three different, enough to give you ideas for your holiday appetizers. Cream-lumpfish roe Caro and Doudou, tuna rillettes tomato-shallot way Sophie (for a change of mine) cheese and mint-Pat, You can choose; I did not want to settle, I made the 3 and I took the opportunity to stuff cucumbers in the format that Pat calls “Cucumber boats”. And you? And if you participate in collective aperitif emulation by giving us your recipe sauces, dips favorite comment…???

Ah Ah ! Me too, I am a fan and as an appetizer than done, tricks with light snack. I note these recipes that I looked much nice… Thank you !
Absolutely love it ! Very easy and yummy!
Me I love to Moitiers cheese Moitiers thick creme fraiche + Roquefort all energetically mixed with a fork :-)
For a slight dip slightly spicy and I like to mix yogurt with just a 1 spoon or 2 curry.
A cocktail recipe to top !
With all this appetizer is always successful ;)
Yum thank you for these practical recipes!
My easy recipe is a mixture of tuna, diced cucumber, shallot, mayo and a good dose of pepper :)
@ SKTV: You're too right for the light stuff, I always try to find a way to avoid snacking too many chips and cucumbers this is a good way
@ Popcorn: Very nice recipe indeed… ;-)
@ Ore: Nice dip with Roquefort, I note, I note, hihihi
@ Flowerpower: With good curry, AC must be a great assortment and indeed it is light!
@ Harini: Thon, cucumber, shallot, May, I like it! And I'll meet you on the dose of poivren I love it.
@ Ore, flowerpower & Harini: Thank you for sharing revenue, I tested it in my next guests as soon as possible!!!
The simplest ideas are often the best, the idea of your stuff is great cucumbers ! Beautiful, good and fresh ! Thank you :)
@ Fay: Totally agree with you, he was thinking and that is why I was delighted to stumble upon in my girlfriend Pat!
Tuna in brine, cottage cheese, a small teaspoon of mustard, juice of half a lemon, fresh coriander : the best tuna rillettes I've tasted since I rebuild and often !
Very good compromise for healthy eating during the aperitif. I tried the cheese and cheese-mint-thon mode cucumbers stuffed. This is the tuna which won the most votes. The texture of cheese and mint was less pleasant, but I have found the 2 sauces very good idea and cucumbers stuffed for the aperitif is great !
Merici this recipe.
Super recette j'adore !! I do a lot of dinner drink but I have some friends who are lactose intolerant , I hunt and recipes that contain no lactose. But it's sure to sauces etc. , difficult not to cream cheese or sour cream , you have an idea for me ? thank you.
@ Laurita: Uh, then I must say that it is not easy indeed for dips sauces. The only thing I think is soy, I seem to have seen soybean spreads that presented a bit like cream cheese. I think you find in grocery stores in the organic. I hope it will help
