I have a party Friday night where the host only has a microwave. Does anyone have any recipes for appetizers that would be good to make? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,

Hi Annie,Thank you for reaching out! I would love to help you come up with some delicious appetizer recipes that can be made in a microwave. Here are a few ideas:1. Spinach and Artichoke Dip - Combine 1 cup of chopped spinach, 1 can of drained and chopped artichoke hearts, 1 cup of shredded cheese, 1/4 cup of mayonnaise, and 1/4 cup of sour cream in a microwave-safe dish. Microwave for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until cheese is melted and dip is heated through. Serve with crackers or bread.2. Bacon-Wrapped Dates - Wrap pitted dates with 1/2 strip of bacon each and secure with a toothpick. Place on a microwave-safe plate and microwave for 3-4 minutes, turning halfway through, until bacon is crispy. Serve as is or drizzle with balsamic glaze for added flavor.3. Mini Quiches - In a microwave-safe mug, mix together 1 beaten egg, 1 tablespoon of milk, 1 tablespoon of shredded cheese, and any desired mix-ins (such as diced ham, chopped veggies, or cooked bacon). Microwave for 1-2 minutes, or until egg is set. Serve as individual quiches or cut into bite-sized pieces for a finger food option.I hope these ideas inspire you for your Friday night party. Let me know if you have any further questions or if you would like more recipe suggestions. Happy cooking!Best,
