Line the perimeter with colorful lettuces, I use red ones around the taco dip. With meat balls maybe red onion slices. Lots of colorful veggies to use that can also be consumed.

Try lining them with parchment paper, using mini trays for samplers or adding dips for a stylish touch. Small details like herbs or edible flowers can also elevate the look.
