The festive table requires a special setting. He is covered with a clean ironed tablecloth, napkins are curiously folded, and the instruments are monitored. But what a table without decorated dishes! It all depends on the skill and dexterity of the hostess. Then the guests will be able to appreciate not only the taste, but also get an aesthetic pleasure from the cooked food. Appetizers, salads and mains should be served on pretty plates and look smart. But try not to overload the table with decorations. Everything should be in moderation.

Instructions
Step 1
Make original salad serving trays.
Pick out ripe, pretty tomatoes. Wash them and cut them in half. If you try a little, then the incision can be made with teeth. Stick the tip of a narrow knife into the center of a whole tomato, making corners, then separate the pieces. Scrape out the pulp with a teaspoon. You will need it for some sauce. And fill the tomato cups with salad.
Step 2
Make a container for your orange salad. Just like tomatoes, cut the oranges in half and fill them. Light citrus aroma goes very well with seafood salads.
Step 3
Grate hard cheese on a fine grater. Line the baking sheet with baking paper or a silicone mat. Spread the crushed cheese on pancakes and place the baking sheet in the hot oven for a couple of minutes. On the table, turn the glasses upside down according to the number of pancakes. The cheese in the oven should melt into a single mass.
Step 4
Take out the baking sheet. Pick up a cheese pancake by the edge and place it on a glass. Use a spatula or hands to shape. You should have a cheese tartlet with delicate edges. Fill it with any salad and serve.
Step 5
Roll thin slices of processed cheese into small rolls. If you put a narrow and long piece of boiled carrots inside, then you can decorate any dish with such a flower. And after filling the bag with cheese salad, serve as a separate appetizer.
Step 6
Design your sliced plates in a creative way.
Cut meat products - smoked sausage, ham, chop - into thin slices. Arrange the washed lettuce leaves on a flat plate, fan the meat pieces on them. Garnish with rolled up long strips of bacon and purple basil leaves.
Step 7
Roll the red fish slices into roses and place on a plate. Spread thinly sliced lemon and herbs around the fish.
Step 8
Garnish the top of the salads served in the salad bowls.
Hard boil the eggs. Cool and clean them. You can cut small daisies from the protein, and sprinkle the salad with yolk on top. Just do this right before serving to prevent the yolk from winding up.
Step 9
Cut different shapes from raw carrots. These can be leaves with jagged edges, thin round slices, ribbons along the entire length of the carrot. Roll several ribbons into one bow, spread greens around. Such a solemn presentation will decorate any table.
Step 10
Sprinkle the top of the salad with pomegranate seeds or halved black olives.
