Coffee Table Munchies

I saw this in a magazine and decided to try it. I put out walnuts, dried fruit, banana chips and threw in some star anise and cinnamon sticks for looks . . . it's become a snack, surprisingly hard to resist.

I like the fragrance that came from the tray of nuts and fruit. It is a festive looking coffee table display. Thanks for sharing.

Festive . . . delicious . . . and healthy! I would find it hard to eat just a little!

I did a similar thing when we had a guest with special dietary needs - just a bowl of fresh walnut halves and dried cranberries - so simple and yet delicious and healthy. You've just given me some additional ideas, thanks!!

It looks most appealing! I love the idea of throwing star anise into the mix.

I'm definitely a fruits and nuts person!

And it is pretty too! I think it would go over well, especially with so many sweets at this time of year.
