Frankly, I am not one to cook for women’s events. That would be like getting a haircut the day before one gets married. It’s just too risky.
If your women’s ministry budget allows, the best course of action would be to hire a caterer. But, if that is not possible, I am going to share some recipes I’ve found around the web for delectable that would be perfect.

For a healthy offering that is more hearty than the other light ideas for a women’s ministry event – try a big fresh salad.
I feel Greek salads are more elegant than just a plain green salad. The texture is so yummy to me.
When I make one, I use the normal ingredients like cucumber, tomato, onion, red pepper, Kalamata olives, and feta cheese โ but you can add or subtract based on your preferences.
Once, I had one with tuna, and it was really good. Here is a recipe here: https://www.cookinglight.com/recipes/greek-chopped-salad-grilled-pita

Create a board …
How about you team with some other ladies in the women’s ministry and re-create this amazing board?
You need apples. I think Honeycrisp apples and tart granny Smith apples would be a perfect flavor profile to match the sausage.
You need herb crackers. They are everywhere. I’m a Walmart fan, but you’d likely do better going to Sam’s or Costco for them.
Try Aidells Chicken Sausage. You can find it just about everywhere, but I get it at Walmart.
I am not sure what the dip is. I would guess it’s a nice hummus dip, but it can be anything you want!
