May 1, 2009, Newsletter Issue #34: Food to Serve With Tea at a Party

Tip of the Week

You'd like to have a tea party, but you don't want to serve platters of sugary foods to your guests. It isn't a healthy way to eat and you'd like to avoid tempting guests that are on specific diets for their health to break their dietary rules. However, now you aren't sure about the menu. Is there a guide for food to serve with tea?

While many tea party pictures show people indulging in cookies, pie tarts and other sugary confections, there are actually quite a few options for less sugary dishes that you can serve at the event. Try some of these traditional treats for a healthier party menu:

Savory tarts are great with most black teas and allow you to use the adorable tart crusts that were on those little pies you were admiring. Simply choose fillings that are healthy. Mix up your favorite healthy muffin recipes and bake them in mini muffin pans. Mini muffins look just as charming as cupcakes when you arrange them on a three tiered stand. Make miniature sandwiches with a variety of fillings. Substitute whole grain bread for the traditional white bread to make these sandwiches a healthy choice.
