It’s that time of year again: the holiday season. And with the holidays comes parties. If you’re on the hunt for some crowd-pleasing appetizers to bring to your next event, consider these easy ideas:
Caprese salad skewers
You’ll need cherry tomatoes, mini mozzarella balls, fresh basil, balsamic glaze, and some toothpicks. To make the skewers, stick a tomato, mozzarella ball, and basil leaf on each toothpick. Then, arrange the skewers on a plate and drizzle some balsamic glaze on top.
Baked brie
You’ll need a wheel of brie, cranberry sauce, an egg, and a thawed sheet of puff pastry. To make, preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Then, lay the pastry out flat and place the brie on top. Spoon some cranberry sauce on top of the brie. Next, wrap the pastry around the brie. Beat the egg and brush it over the pastry. Finally, bake it for about 35 minutes, until the pastry is golden brown.
Cheese plate
You’ll need a few different cheeses, some salami, and some crackers. Simply slice the cheese and salami into bite sized pieces, and then arrange everything on a plate. You can also add nuts, dried fruit, jam, bread, honey … anything you like!
