This is the first in a series of quickie hors d'oeuvres. Each of these recipes takes less than five minutes to prepare. If you think your guests are grateful for the chips and storebought dip you've been setting out (this assumes you've already read Cultivating a Hostess Response, Pt 1: Stocking your Pantry), get a load of these babies!

The first installment of 5-minute hors d'oeuvres includes 4 fancy yummy easy pretty dishes you can whip up in under 5 minutes. Take your pick. Cost for the ingredients will range from $5 to $10, depending on what you keep on hand.
