| There are many ways to start a meal, depending on what you're serving and who you're serving. But appetizers, salads or soups will always get you off to a good start. If you come out swinging and knock 'em cold in the first round, you're sure to get raves by surpassing yourself in the second and third. Dips and cold snacks can be very handy when you're having guests and need a few minutes in the kitchen to add the final touches to the main attraction. Or if you're serving cocktails or wine before the meal, it's nice to have something to snack on. Salads are always acceptable. And their varieties are virtually endless. Soups are great too. Try a cold soup for a summer meal. Or for an important dinner party, you might want to serve one of each. But no matter what you choose, always consider how well your selection will complement what follows. For instance, if the main course calls for mushrooms and you have a few left over, toss them in your salad. Here are some recipes that we think taste great. And when you add your ideas, they'll taste even better. Bon appétit! Related links:
