Ideas for 'bring a plate' nights (smart but quick!)

[itonlyhappenedonce]

I have two of these nights before Christmas. Both quite smart (not tip a bag of sausage rolls on a plate) both on nights I'm working and won't get home til 6.

I normally do a plate of antipasti with meats, mozzarella, peppers etc but have done it a few too many times now.

Anyone have any other ideas ? Would be best if they can be served cold.

Buy some sushi if you live somewhere near a sushi place?
( I am in london so this works for me but maybe not for everyone!)

Berry fruit and chocolates platter. Separate each type of berries with chocolates. Looks very attractive, quick to assemble at last minute and I doubt it'll be duplicated.

Another one I do is cherry tomatoes, chop off top scoop out middle stuff with a bit of pesto and top that with grated cheese. These can be made day before.

What about shredded duck with orange chunks and crasins, lightly dressed, served in iceberg lettuce leaf wraps. Very festive. You could make it in advance too.

Instead if the antipasti try a Greek mezze - hummus tzarziki - warned pittas stuffed vibe leaves etc...
