23 Skinny Appetizer Recipes
When sit down dinners are too formal, I love finger foods – something you can prep ahead then heat just before serving. I went through my recipes and picked out some favorites that would be perfect if you are hosting a party. Some served cold, others hot, a perfect combination to make any table proud.
Spinach and Bacon Stuffed Mushrooms
Black Bean, Avocado, Cucumber and Tomato Dip
Easy Crust-less Spinach and Feta Pie
Loaded Turkey Santa Fe Baked Potato Skins
Skinny Baked Brie Phyllo Cups with Craisins and Walnuts
Southwest Turkey Meatballs with Creamy Cilantro Dipping Sauce
Zesty Lime Shrimp and Avocado Salad
Thank you Thank you Thank you!!!!!! Exactly what I was looking for: healthy apps for Christmas Eve. No sit-down dinner. We play games and nibble.
Your posting is awesome. Thanks so much 🙂
If, you want to add non-vegetarian recipes to the party menu then I recommended Halaal & Indian Caterers Johannesburg for getting the best results, and impressing your guests effortlessly.
Every dish is just so tempting and delicious even the plating is done so beautifully. Mouthwatering recipes i must say.
We preferred this place because they are all-inclusive, so you don't have to worry about linens, chairs, catering, and cake because it's all part of the package.
Oh sweet I've never tried it this way. ON IT! Thanks for sharing!
I found this website at 1 am and there is nothing in my fridge. Do you know my feeling when I see these delicious foods
I'll say it again, I cannot wait for your cookbook! Another great post. All of these look so delicious. Thanks, Gina!
I just found your website on Google and I must say, I’m impressed. I frequent a lot of blogs and yours is by far one of the best I’ve come across. The information you have here is concise and accurate and you have a very good writing style. Perhaps you should consider writing a book?
Excellent, but it would be better if in future you can share more about this subject. Keep posting.
What a fabulous round up! I don't think I can rest until I make those mushrooms!
You are really great Gina !!! Thanks again for sharing all your wonderfull ideas .

Gina, Do you think I could use Gruyere cheese instead of the Brie in the Phyllo cups?

Gina, THANKS SO MUCH for putting this list together. I adore the idea of all my party guests mingling and snacking on finger foods all night! Even better that I'm not stuffing them with a bunch of fattening/greasy food. This list will make it very easy to plan my menu. YOU ROCK!!!!
Don't you!! You can even tell everyone to bring something so you don't have to do all the work!
Love the idea of a finger foods party for New Year's Eve! Thanks for the lighter way to accomplish a great night!
