Make ahead hors d'oeuvres?
I'm hosting 6 friends at my house for heavy hors d'oevres/light dinner next Tuesday night, but will be away for the long weekend and arriving back that morning, then at work all day. Essentially, I have time this week (today and tomorrow) to cook, then a couple of hours on Tuesday night to prep.
I'd love your ideas for some hors d'oeuvres that can be made and frozen and then assembled the day of! Thank you!

Or Tuscan Chicken Liver Pate:

You'd just need to slice and toast the baguettes.
Serve the Pate in a 'clamp style' 1/2 height mason jar. Or use the top of a butter dish lined with plastic wrap to form little loafs. It'll keep in the fridge several days..and needs to firm up if you make ahead--I think it would freeze well.
In fact keep that theme up. Instead of traditional made bits of stuff. Pull out a large wooden cutting board and plate some Charcuterie. Sliced good meats, little bowls of mustard, baskets of bread and home made crackers (make ahead and store), or watercracker.
Another plate with cheeses. Go to the home depot/lowes this week and get some black slate tiles. Walgreen for food safe mineral oil. and oil up some tiles for serving.
