Bruschetta is a wonderful hors d'œuvre that, in more complicated arrangements such as these, also makes for a complete meal. We made these dishes pretty much by the seat of our pants, with ingredients from around the kitchen and whatever was freshest at Plum Produce.

Roasted artichoke, fresh spinach, ricotta with parsley

Avocado and cucumber with lime, "tuxedo" sesame seeds, and rice wine & toasted sesame oil vinaigrette

Spicy Carrot Purée and Toasted Almonds

Croque Monsieur: Thick-sliced Virginia ham, Gruyere, English whole seed mustard, cayenne pepper, browned in broiler

Jamon Serrano, goat cheese, baby arugula, caramelized shallot rings

Prosciutto di Parma, butter, Parmigiano-Reggiano Riserva (three years) "peels", blanched asparagus
