I have guests coming over soon and I plan to cook a beautiful meal from my ethnic origin..I do it best..the only thing is the main meal is rather heavy and I would like only a very light dessert for my guests..so instead of cooking a pudding/ dessert, I was thinking of serving a fruit platter with the option for them to have some icecream for dessert or some mint tea/ coffee. Do you think this would be ok ?

chi shom dorost mikoni? Khoresh? I’ll be right over!Just kidding.
I think fruit is a great idea too. Don’t forget anar! They make the best dessert with chai.

Sounds good to me. Ice cream is a good idea.
Also, maybe you could have a plate of chocolates for any guests who have an after-dinner craving for some….

I think it sounds wonderful! A light dessert after a heavy meal is exactly what is called for in my book! I think I would even forget the ice cream and offer just the fruit to make things easy for yourself since you will be cooking such a large meal. The hot tea sounds so soothing and relaxing and will encourage everyone to sit back and chat. Is there room for one more guest? hahaha Have a wonderful evening with your friends!

Sounds great. You can add a fruit dip if you wish..there are many online made with yogurts and other ingredients that are very light or you can try this which I did post one other time…
one 8 ounce package of cream cheese
one large container of marshmallow creme/fluff
about a tablespoon of vanilla extract
Have cream cheese at room temperature and then beat until creamy, add marshmallow creme and vanilla and beat until fluffy.
I put in a nice bowl in the center of the fruit platter and a little container with toothpicks next to it.
Enjoy your dinner party!!

I would always far rather have a fruit platter after a nice meal than anything else
and even guests who would expect a "pudding" will find this deliciously refreshing after their main course
enjoy!

sounds good to me and it will be light as a heavier pudding might be too much for them…
