Okay, here is the deal. I have a "party" to go to on Friday. It's kind of a show, but not really. I am going to have my products out, but no demo or anything. I need 2 simple, easy appetizers to make...I don't make appetizers and am in desperate need of suggestions on what to make! TIA!
 
The Spinach Artichoke Dip & Touchdown Taco Dip are always super hits. They require baking though. So no bake...Apple Berry Salsa. Even a couple of dips (Chipotle Ranch, Dill, etc) with chips or veggies in SA.
 
I love the dip using the Southwestern Seasoning. A cup of mayo (not Miracle Whip) and cup of sour cream with 1 1/2 -3 tablespoons of seasoning. Dip tortillas or pretzels. I don't like extra spicey so I use only 1 1/2 tablespoons of seasoning. Bring it in the small chillzanne bowl to keep it cold. I also use light mayo and sour cream.
 
I vote Apple Berry Salsa with Cinnamon Tortilla Chips. I make this all the time and in the rare case that you actually have leftovers, the salsa is YUMMY on waffles instead of syrup!
 
Hi there! As a Pampered Chef consultant, I have plenty of easy and delicious appetizer recipes to share with you. One of my go-to favorites is the Mini Phyllo Cups with Creamy Pesto Chicken Filling. It only requires a few ingredients and can be made ahead of time. Another great option is the Spinach Artichoke Dip made in our Deep Covered Baker. It's always a crowd-pleaser and can be served with crackers or bread. Let me know if you need any further assistance or if you would like more recipe recommendations. Happy cooking!
