Love the cold appetizers on a hot day, which mercifully, it was for only about an hour...

Deviled eggs
Boil and peel your eggs.
Mix the yolks with equal parts mayo and mustard. Add a splash of vinegar. Season with salt and pepper. Fill your egg halves with mixture. Top with crispy bacon. Top with rolled fillets of anchovy. Top with chopped chives. Everyone (except the bride) loves deviled eggs...

Bean Bruschetta
Two cans of white beans (cannellini). Blend one in a blender with some olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper. Fold the remaining beans into the blended bean mix.
Set aside.
Chop some tomatoes and spread them on a baking sheet. Top with oil, red onion, salt and pepper. Bake until cooked and beginning to carmelize. Set aside.
Slice a baguette thinly. Spread bean mixture on rounds. Top with a fresh basil leaf and a dollop of the tomato jam.
