I hosted a cocktail party for about 20 guests and did not want to spend too much money and found a great list of affordable appetizers on myrecipes.com. if anyone is looking to save money on entertaining--this is a great resource. These are the four apps that I served-so good:
- Ham & Cheese Skewers - dice apples and toss in lemon juice so they don't turn brown. just skewer a cube of ham, a leaf of arugula, spinach, or watercress, a piece of diced apple and a chunk of blue cheese with a toothpick or skewers if you have them. Makes a pretty display
- Pizza Sticks - this was a huge hit! take 1 12oz refrigerated thin pizza crust top with 1 container of tomato bruschetta topping and sprinkle 1 cup of shredded italian cheese blend, on top, bake for 12 min. and cut in strips. serve right on the cutting board for an authentic pizzaria feel. These went fast.
- Mini Caprese Bites - another party favorite! slice grape tomatoes in half, cut small mozzarella cheese balls into thirds, and make a sandwich between the tomoato and the cheese and place in a shallow dish or bowl. mix olive oil, balsamic vinegar dash of pepper and salt and thinly sliced basil leaves, then drizzle over the tomato sticks. cute and healthy.
- Warm Rosemary Olives - mix 6 cups of mixed olives (they recommend nicoise, spanish, picholine and greek)with 5 sprigs of fresh rosemary and 2 tsp of red pepper flakes and place in the sent of a large sheet of aluminum foil, heat over to 400F and bake 30 min. serve warm
I didnt' try the other 6 recipes, but they looked good too:
- Garlic and Sun-Dried Tomato Hummus
- Cherry Tomato Toasts
- Peach-&-Blue Cheese Bites
- Garlic Pita Chips
- Monster Meatball Sandwiches
- Potato Nests w/Sour Cream & Smoked Salmon
