Healthy dinner party recipes

Healthy being the operative word here ladies, with summer well on it’s way (god forbid the bikini season) I decided to steer clear of the usual over-indulgence at my dinner parties and try a healthier/lighter option. You might be thinking my poor guests, but it was pretty tasty, even if I say so myself!

My beautiful roses from Courts and Nix (some of the dinner party guests)

I did roast chickens with ciabatta and then made two salads and a garlic, chives and baby potato dish.
