What would be appropriate to serve with a white zinfandel if you are not having a meal with it?

Those cocktail size sausages, Hormel calls them "'Lil' Smokies", in a sweet and sour sauce. Serve with toothpics.

I would try anything made with turkey. This meat goes unusally well with the fruitiness in the wine.

I know I am going to get a lot of heat for this....
Steak

Shrimp coctail, otherwise nothing really serious. Drink it as an aperatif, IMHO.
Just another SW for those who are not sure they really like wine...............

I AGREE WITH MR D. WHITE ZINFANDEL IS FOR A LACK OF A BETTER TERM A SODA POP WINE. IF LOOKING TO IMPRESS SOMEONE I WOULD TRY SOMETHING ELSE, PERHAPS A REISLING OR A FRUITY CHARD.

May be true, but IMHO white zin has converted more beer and booze drinkers to wine than Wine Spec, Robert P ,and all the tasting groups in the world combined. Bob T should be congradulated. Given time, and experience, at least there`s a chance the white zin drinker will graduate into more esoteric stuff. winoweenie
