"So, appetizers are meals you eat BEFORE you eat?"--Unknown Author
Appetizers aren't really meals but more like the snack you enjoy BEFORE the meal. Or the mini meal before the meal. A lot of times though, especially in the summer it is just HOT! I don't know about you but I don't have a big appetite in the summer when its' super hot so a few appetizers are perfect. We served our steak and chicken bites with some rice, salad and watermelon.
