If a few pieces are crushed or wilted, the whole concoction will look careless and un appetizing. Remember, an appetiz er should not be too sweet, for as the name implies, the first course should sharpen the appetite. For the rest of the menu you might like to serve mock chicken legs, baked potatoes, crisp green salad, crescent rolls, and as an un usual dessert, chocolate mint roll.
