You may have noticed that I love the flavours of buffalo chicken. I find a way to put a twist on it in as many ways as I can like these Buffalo Chicken Rangoon appetizers. I’ve made Crab Rangoon for years which is where I got the inspiration for these. I thought the wonton wrappers would […]
Easy Reuben Pinwheels
As soon as I spotted the New York Style Rye tortillas at the grocery store, this idea flew into my head. Since a traditional reuben is made on rye bread, I knew I could turn these into reuben pinwheels and serve them as an appetizer. These reuben pinwheels had a journey on the day of […]
Easy Crock Pot Meatballs
For many years, one of our favourite chicken recipes has been Cindy’s Chicken. It’s a simple recipe but oh, so good! When we have a get-together, I often serve sweet and sour crock pot meatballs as one of the appetizers. Meatballs are always a huge hit with kids (and some of the adults). I wanted […]

These simple mediterranean pinwheels make an easy lunch or appetizer. Mediterranean Pinwheels Recipe: large flour tortillas (6) 227 g hummus (your own recipe or store bought) 1 […]
Fire and Ice Shrimp
These Fire and Ice Shrimp are amazing! Just trust me on this recipe and you will have friends begging you to give you the secret ingredients.

Bacon and Goat Cheese Stuffed Mini Peppers
These bacon and goat cheese stuffed mini peppers are a nice, fresh tasting appetizer. They bring a splash of colour to your food display at a party. These mini peppers are a surprising change from the usual appetizer offering of dips and rich cheesy dishes, so I make them fairly often. You can completely make […]

Gingerbread Spiced Walnuts
There’s something about the holidays that bring out all the nuts! I mean that not only in the sense of friends and family members, but also in the sense of literal nuts. And these gingerbread spiced walnuts are about as festive as they come! You more than likely already have these spices in your cupboard […]
Bacon Wrapped Buffalo Chicken Bites
My quest to wrap the world in bacon continues! These bacon wrapped buffalo chicken bites are the perfect game day snack. These little appetizers are a great combination of the currently popular taste of buffalo chicken with the classically popular taste of bacon. First you will want to cut the chicken into cubes. Season the […]
Mini Grilled Cheese Goodness
Grilled cheese is another of my comfort food favourites and although many don’t think of serving it as an appetizer, it is a real crowd pleaser. The trick is to grill them ahead of time and then pop them in the oven to warm just before guests arrive. Cook up some bacon. Everyone seems to […]
