Appetizers

Heath Bar Toffee Dip

I made this recipes a while back for a party then came across is again the other day when trying to figure out a menu for a baby shower! I got my friend Julie to whip it up and instead of just the toffee pieces they crushed real heath bars so it had chocolate too and I think it made it a lot better. It was amazing, I could have eaten it with a spoon!

Feta Dip

I thought I’d share this awesome super easy no-cook appetizer that has always been a hit.  This is that ONE recipe that I always get asked for the most.  And it’s ridiculously, embarrassingly easy. 

Here’s what you need:
olive oil
1 block (1#) of feta cheese  (I don’t like the pre-crumbled kind because I think it is dry)
tomatoes (any kind)…I use about 3 Roma’s
1 bunch of green onions

Red White and Blue Salsa

A fresh and fruity salsa with a nice crunch! Perfect for the 4th of July...or any summer day!

Ingredients:

1 cup fresh blueberries
1 cup diced strawberries
1 cup diced jicama
1/3 cup chopped cilantro
1/4 cup finely chopped red onion
2 tablespoons finely chopped jalapeno pepper, stemmed and seeded
Juice of 1 large lime
Salt, to taste
Tortilla chips, for serving

Basil Pesto Rolls

I love Pesto! I love Bread! Put them together and it is an amazing treat.  I saw this picture on Pinterest and of course I had to pin it. The problem is the recipe is in a different language.  Sigh.  So this is what I did to make it for our family.

Press out a roll of cresent rolls and spread your pesto on top of the dough.  Roll the dough like cinnamon rolls and cut into pieces.  Place the rolls on a pie plate and bake according to directions. Serve with marinara sauce as an appetizer.
