Serve Sides Separately: Plate your favorite meal with multiple elements in separate dishes to bring a more homemade feel. Try serving rice in small bowls alongside. A dab of yogurt is also a great food trick and also looks excellent on top and contrasts with a dark brown sauce. Finish with some fresh chopped cilantro.
Hummus: Serve hummus in a bowl and drizzle over it some olive oil, a few chickpeas, and a sprinkle of paprika. Your guests won’t know that it’s store-bought.
Pizza: Strew fresh Parmesan shavings and arugula over your pizza when it comes out of the oven. Besides adding color, it also gives it a salty kick of flavor, just like an Italian grandma made it.
