Method
Preparation of Appetizers
Prepare Bruschetta
Toast the slices of bread until golden brown. Top each slice with diced tomatoes, minced garlic, chopped basil, and a drizzle of olive oil. Set aside.
Cook Cheese Ravioli
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the cheese ravioli and cook according to package instructions until they float to the top. Drain and set aside.
Prepare Stuffed Mushrooms
Remove stems from mushrooms and fill each cap with a mixture of cream cheese, garlic, herbs, and breadcrumbs. Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 20 minutes or until golden.
Preparation of Sauces
Heat Marinara Sauce
In a small saucepan, heat the marinara sauce over medium heat until warmed through. Stir occasionally.
Prepare Alfredo Sauce
In another saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add heavy cream and simmer for 5 minutes. Stir in grated Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Make Pesto Sauce
In a food processor, blend fresh basil, garlic, pine nuts, Parmesan cheese, and olive oil until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

On a large serving platter, arrange the bruschetta, cheese ravioli, and stuffed mushrooms. Serve each appetizer with a side of marinara, alfredo, and pesto sauces for dipping.
