Easy-to-serve dishes may be passed around the table to foster an atmosphere of community. Decorate your outdoor table simply, using vibrant oranges and a naturally woven, richly hued table runner to add splashes of color.

Fennel and Orange Salad Simple and fresh—the hallmarks of Sicilian cooking—come together in this refreshing salad, which features just a few fresh ingredients: oranges, fennel and olives. Buy extra olives and place them on the table in a small bowl so guests can snack before the meal is served.

Chickpea Fritters These crisp-edged fritters pair perfectly with a chilled glass of Chardonnay, and they’re easy to make at home with only five ingredients. Serve in a lined basket or on a simple platter.

Wild Greens and Cheese Frittata Greens such as arugula and broccoli rabe are signatures of Italian cooking. This flavorful frittata lets them shine in a vegetarian main course that will satisfy meat eaters, too. Cut the frittata into wedges and arrange on a platter, then pass it around so guests can help themselves.

Gelato alla Crema Homemade gelato is the ultimate make-ahead dessert for any Italian get-together. This recipe features a hint of orange, but you can also customize it with other fruits, chocolate chunks or toasted nuts. Scoop the gelato into blue-tinged dessert bowls for casual, festive look.
