MARINATED ANTIPASTO MEDLEY

Marinated Antipasto Medley image

Each year at Christmas time, the faculty and staff at my school has a Goodies Day where we bring all manner of tasty things to share with everyone. These marinated bites were gone even before the first lunch period! I like to make up this recipe the night before so it will be ready in the morning for all of those hungry teachers and staff seeking something to nibble on before lunch.
