Easy canapés when you need them

OK so you get invited to a friends for dinner and ask if you can bring anything (quietly expecting they are going to say yourself and a bottle of wine)! Alas, they ask if you'd mind bringing some canapés... and you go into panic mode!
So there are usually two options:
(a) you spend a couple of hours in the kitchen fiddling about with some highly complicated recipe with lots of ingredients.
(b) you cheat and buy spend a fortune at waitress and buy their pre-made canapés. 

Well here I am providing option (c), a really good way to make some  easy, tasty and inexpensive canapés! 

This is what you will need:

• Some mini pastry cases or blinis you can find in Asda & Waitrose. 
• Cream Cheese (Philadelphia is my favourite buy any  of the cheaper own brands will do the trick)
• Cherry Tomatoes
• Pesto (homemade always tastes best if you have time to make it)

 
Method:

• Put the cream cheese in the pastry cases or spread on the blinis. 
• Cut the tomatoes on half and spread some pesto on the inside flesh of the tomato
• Place on top of the cream cheese

​​​Voila and don't they look professional!

​Different varieties include:

• ​Pate with an olive
• ​Brie and grape
• ​Custard with a strawberry or some other fruit
• ​Chocolate Mouse with an orange segment
