Chef Gerrie’s Notes *

*Plastic shot glasses by SimpleHomeCo. 3 oz Dessert Cups with Mini Spoons are fabulous. Premium Quality Clear Plastic Appetizer Bowls, Small Tasting & Fruit Parfait Glasses, Shooters, Tumblers, and disposable. The best thing is that it has a higher back so food won’t spill out when eating. It makes a great presentation and they come in a pack of 40 with mini spoons. And price is very reasonable on Amazon. 

* Garlic Expressions salad dressing is a go to vinaigrette when you don’t have the time to make your own.
