Birthday is, first of all, a holiday, which is usually celebrated with a feast. In order for the guests to be satisfied with your treats, make sure that everything you need is on the table.
Instructions
Step 1
Prepare a variety of snacks. The sophistication of any festive table is determined by the appetizers, therefore, you should not neglect them on your birthday. Buy sausages, cheeses, olives, herbs, vegetables and fruits. You can make canapes, sandwiches, salads and other favorite snacks from them. Do not forget about sauces - mayonnaise, sour cream, ketchup. Season salads with them, and place filled gravy boats on the table. Fruits and vegetables can be simply sliced and laid out on plates, or mixed into salads. Season fruit salads with yogurt or whipped cream.
Step 2
Take care of hot meals. To do this, include meat, poultry and fish in the menu. Buy a little bit of everything, as everyone has their own preferences and all guests will be happy in the end. It is better to choose chicken or turkey from poultry, pork from meat, but buy fish according to your capabilities. If you have the means, the best solution is salmon or salmon, if you are limited in options, ordinary herring, properly cooked, will do. Don't forget to buy spices and herbs for hot meals.
Step 3
Treat yourself and your guests to dessert. Almost no birthday is complete without sweets. The classic option would be a good cake - you can order it or make it yourself. Buy cakes and candies - they never get in the way. If you decide to make a cake with your own hands, do not forget to buy decorations for it. This can be chocolate icing, cream, or fruit such as strawberries. Sprinkle grated chocolate over your dessert. If you want to surprise your guests, buy ice cream. Almost everyone loves it, so most likely, no one will refuse to enjoy a dairy dessert.
Step 4
Don't forget about drinks. Try to accommodate all possible guest preferences. Buy soft drinks such as juices, sodas, and water. You can buy compote or fruit drink. Take care of alcohol too. Someone likes strong alcohol - vodka, cognac, brandy, whiskey, someone lighter - wine, vermouth, liqueurs. You can pamper your guests with champagne, especially since it is a traditional element of the holiday.
Step 5
If your guests are vegetarians, buy more vegetables and fruits. Prepare mushroom dishes. The best solution would be vegetarian pizza and all kinds of vegetable salads. If you yourself do not want or do not know how to prepare such dishes, buy ready-made ones in local cafes or supermarkets.
