Pineapple Cheese Ball

In my family, it’s not a party until the cheese ball arrives. This Hawaiian-inspired Pineapple Cheese Ball is a sweet and savory version that makes a unique, crowd-pleasing addition to any appetizer spread.

Whipped Feta Crostini

Whipped Feta Crostini is the app that does it all! Toasted baguette slices smeared with a heavenly feta topping, you can enjoy them just as they are, or top them off with any manner of finishing touches.

Sausage Stuffed Mushrooms

Sausage Stuffed Mushrooms will forever remind me of my Grandma Dorothy. No matter how many she made (it seemed to me like hundreds) our family devoured them all.

Goat Cheese Balls

My first experience with Goat Cheese Balls—creamy portions of softened goat cheese rolled in breadcrumbs and cooked until golden and crisp outside and meltingly creamy inside—was in France, where they are a common addition to salads. Today’s recipe has the same level of splendor, done in mini, easy baked form!

Edamame Hummus

Nothing toys with my self-confidence quite like the 10 minutes before a party. Do we have enough dip? What if no one comes, and it’s just me alone with the Edamame Hummus?

Bacon Wrapped Brussels Sprouts

As it turns out, the answer to the question “Isn’t there one, single food that doesn’t taste better wrapped in bacon?” is NOPE. Not in this case, at least! Bacon Wrapped Brussels Sprouts are the appetizer/side/just-because-I-love-you recipe that’s driving us wild.

Cranberry Cream Cheese Appetizer Bites

No matter how many different appetizers I serve at a party, it’s the ones with cream cheese that are the first to vanish. Cranberry Cream Cheese Appetizer Bites are easy to make, blissful to eat, and if the orange-scented cream cheese filling doesn’t win you over immediately, the buttery pie crust exterior will.

Ham and Cheese Pinwheels

While I’d be flattered if you assumed that my go-to appetizer is a beautifully styled combination of bespoke produce, a homemade fancy sauce, and some kind of European cured meat, let me tell you a little secret: it’s actually these four-ingredient Ham and Cheese Pinwheels.

Pesto Pinwheels

At this special, too often stressful, time of year, I’d like to remind us all to focus on the things that bring us together: like puff pastry. No matter his or her worldview, every single guest at my party agrees that appetizers with puff pastry are THE BEST. These easy Pesto Pinwheels with cheese and prosciutto are my latest puff pastry fave. They’re festive, can be made well in advance (months if you like!), and are guaranteed to unite any gathering.

Crab Artichoke Toasts

The phrase “the more the merrier” has transformed from casual phrase to personal life calling. This time of year, I want to have people over all the time! Since you’re not allowed to enter my house without my attempting to feed you, fast yet classy appetizers like these Crab Artichoke Toasts are exactly the recipes I need. They feel special enough for the holidays BUT (and this is key), they are fast and easy, so I can pull them together on a whim. If you already know you’ll be hosting, these crab appetizers can be made in advance, so they are ideal for holiday party planning too.

Spinach Puffs

Last weekend, my girlfriends and I gathered for our Annual Girls’ Christmas Beauty Bash. In what has become one of my favorite holiday traditions, we each bring a wrapped beauty or cosmetic item of a set value, food, and a bottle of bubbly, then gather to sip, eat, giggle, and play what has become an increasingly heated gift exchange game. I baked these Spinach Puffs and wrapped up this pretty set of lipsticks, which I fully admit I was tempted to steal for myself during the game.
