The perfect snack-y dinner revolves around 7 main components: Crispy-Crunchy: Savory BitesTangy-Juicy: Pickles & MarinadesScooped and Smeared: Dips & SpreadsCenterpiece-ish: A Little HeartierSmall but Mighty: Spoon Salads & Soup ShotsVessels: Crackers, Breads, & ChipsSips-Sweets: Drinks & DessertsVolger shows how these flavorful components can be mixed and matched to create a palate-pleasing meal. Following Volger's guidance, you may start out with a few Smoky Glazed Pistachios for crunch and add some zesty Orange & Mustard Marinated Asparagus with a side of Honey Pickled Shallots. Craving something creamy? Try a Toasted Walnut and Feta Dip or Gingery Green Tahini with homemade Nut & Seed Crackers or crudités. The possibilities are endless. Best of all, many of these bites can be made ahead and stored in the fridge or pantry for easy assembly.With Volger's simple, wholesome, recipes and pairing guidance, snacks for dinner is no longer shameful--but a healthy, fun, and respectable choice.
