Snacks / canapé ideas for garden drinks evenings??

Me and my sis went to our friends’ garden for drinks last night. They’d suggested we bring a selection of cheeses and they’d bake some focaccia and get some crackers (they’re GF so easier for them to sort). We had dipping oil and vinegar, mini mozzarella, sun dried tomatoes, olives. It was such a lovely evening, and really put our usual cheesy wotsits and cashew nuts to shame 🤣🤣🤣 (we sometimes vary it up with pistachios, rice crackers, veg crisps .. you get the picture!)

I’d be so grateful if you’d share what you might serve if you have friends round for drinks and you just want nibbles, assuming everybody has eaten a light dinner already.

Any recommendations on shop bought items, as well as anything you might make yourself. Thanks!

Oh yum love the sound of the cheese grazing board. I like a selection of dips with nice crackers, crudités, olives etc which is fairly big standard/dull so following for ideas!

I like a cheese board with nuts, olives, bread etc. I’ve done this type of thing in the past with toasted pitta chips and crudités. Though only when I know there are no double dippers attending!
