Appetizers

You can even eat them warm and really savor the coating.

You can serve these as an appetizer, a party buffet food, a lunch or even as a dinner option. If you have never had Thai food and want an easy way to try it, this is a perfect dish.

This is one of the easiest appetizers on the planet.

When you’re feeling in a retro mood, pull this recipe out, serve with crackers and you’ll be singing the yum-yum song.

Two basic ingredients and some herbs. Simple elegance at its finest.

Make these crackers when you have invited a friend over for a glass of wine and you want to have a little snack on the side.

This is a recipe that can made by a supervised child or a helper. It's basically assembly work. Your time is then freed up to work on the other things. It took me about 30 minutes to do 30 rolls.

You will want to roast the garlic until it is lightly golden on the edges and the timing depends on your oven, the size of the garlic and the amount of oil you use.

You can use celery sticks to dip or a few of the wafer thin crackers. You can even just eat it with a spoon!

Depending on the size of your peppers you might have filling left over. You can keep this for later. It will make a lovely stuffing for an omelet.

There's only one ingredient in this recipe. The success is in the quality and the presentation. Cooking rookies and gourmets in a hurry can't beat this one for ease.

When we were at lunch the other day, Jen mentioned how dieters miss their crunch. She wondered if we could come up with a recipe for apple chips.

Instead of serving pecan pie, how about serving these as an appetizer/snack offering? They are amazingly addictive.

Dieter Misty wrote to me asking for a cheese ball recipe for the holidays. So I worked with Misty to come up with one that is all natural, REAL ingredients recipe. Hope you enjoy!

Okay, this sounds weird but they are really quite tasty. A bit of salt with your sweet!
