Unusual recipes for salads and appetizers for the New Year

Salads and snacks are perhaps the most interesting and delicious dishes in new year holidays... And how they just do not decorate.

Here is the fiery monkey - the symbol of 2016 cannot be ignored. Here, in principle, you can take any favorite salad recipe and arrange it in the form of a primate face, in the form of a banana or coconut, decorate any cold dish with a palm tree of olives planted on a bamboo stick with onion feathers at the end.

And even jellied or jellied meat can be poured into a herringbone, Santa Claus, monkey mold before cooling, or make beautiful ones with bright vegetables (corn, peas, chopped boiled carrots or beets, bell peppers, herbs), which will emphasize the sophistication of your table.

• Cut the banana pulp into 3 cm slices and wrap them with bacon, cut into strips 3 cm wide.To prevent the appetizer from unwinding, fix everything with toothpicks.

Carefully remove the pulp (we need it for the salad), and line the inside of the banana "container" with leaves of Peking cabbage.

Now we cut the salad itself: we cut the boiled chicken breast (1 pc.) And the pulp of 2 bananas into cubes, 1 sour apple and 100 g of hard cheese three on a grater, after which we mix everything and season with light mayonnaise and salt to taste.

Interesting dessert dishes for the new year 2016

Both adults and children love desserts, but for the New Year's table this sweet menu item needs to be thought out inside and out.

For example, in the middle of the night after heavy libations, no one wants to fiddle with a huge cake, or gobble up fatty cream cakes after a hearty dinner. And the monkey is unlikely to favor something like that at his celebration.

So the final stage of the feast is a great opportunity to bring to life the most daring and interesting ideas of the New Year delicious recipes desserts for the festive table.

Fruit palm salad

2. Next, in the form of a palm tree, lay out a banana cut lengthwise and then slices across.
3. At the end, cut the kiwi, peeled from the skin, into semicircles and spread on top in the form of a crown.

So we got the original tropical fruit slicing.

• In a separate cup, dilute the gelatin with hot (60-80 ° C) water, stir and insist. Then we pass the gelatinous liquid through a sieve to avoid getting lumps, and introduce it gradually, stirring it into the curd mass.

Banana popsicle

Ingredients

• Bananas - 4 pcs.;
• Milk chocolate bar - 1 pc .;

1. Cut the peeled bananas in half and put each half on a skewer or ice cream stick, after which we send the fruits to the freezer for 2 hours.

The chocolate on frozen bananas hardens very quickly, and the dessert looks exactly like a delicious popsicle. Store in the freezer until serving.

New Year drinks

In order for the cocktail to emphasize the atmosphere of the New Year's celebration, moisten the edges of the glass with water, after which we dip the wet edging in a saucer with powdered sugar.
