We are a cheese loving family to say the least. Brie, cheddar, bleu cheese--we'll happily consume any cheese put in front of any of us.
I've found with kids especially that putting out a plate of cheese, crackers and cut up fruit makes for an easy, healthy snack any time of the day and tonight before mom and dad leave the house for a few hours of adult celebrating, we'll definitely do it up.
One place I've found for great recipes and easy inspiration, President Cheese. Their brie logs can be found at any Trader Joes and other grocery stores and are yummy and reasonably priced. Check out the photo below--yum! For the recipe, visit Fig Brie.

Entertaining doesn't have to be complicated or fussy or expensive.
