Refrigerate, seam side down. When firm, cut into appetizer size pieces. You can do the same with many different lunch meats, seasoning the cream cheese as you desire and substitute olives for pickles. Season cream cheese with horseradish, or dill, or Cajun or Mexican, Italian seasonings. Tortilla pinwheels - these are easy enough to look up on the 'Net for recipes.

Cheese balls and crackers OR just go to Costco and pick up a couple of the boxes of frozen appetizers or get some fresh appetizers from their deli case. Good Luck Janet US |

No muss, no fuss, and a tasty, healthy appetizer to boot! Years ago, I made Hoagie dip. I thought it was nasty but everyone at the party loved it. I know I got the recipe from Allrecipes but I do not remember putting any lettuce or tomatoes in it. This is the recipe. http://allrecipes.com/recipe/23938/hoagie-dip/ Another thing that people always seem to love is Espinaca Con Queso although I have no actual recipe for it. I just make it until it looks right to me. Basically a mixture of cream cheese and Velveeta (I use equal amounts of each), melted slowly, then some chopped spinach, excess liquid squeezed out, particularly if frozen but you can use fresh. Add plenty of spinach. You want just enough cheese to hold it together. Then a little salsa to thin it down. Serve warm with tortilla chips and/or raw veggies. This keeps well in a Crockpot. |

> wrote: > I need a recommendation for a simple appetizer for someone who is > woefully inept at making them—me! > > -- Me too, so I take the easy way out with Brie and pears or a cheese platter. Other easy appetizers are Dates stuffed with blue cheese, wrapped with bacon and broiled or baked until the bacon is crispy. Stuffed Mushrooms (stuffing varies), I make them mushroom stuffed but I don't object to eating them when they're stuffed with meat Fig And Walnut Tapenade Mini-quiche Mushroom pate How about bacon wrapped chicken? 1.25 lbs (3) boneless skinless chicken breast (I use boneless thighs), cut in 1-inch chunks - about 30 pieces 10 slices bacon, cut into thirds. Directions: Preheat oven on to 375°F. Wrap a piece of bacon around each piece of chicken; secure with a toothpick and place on a baking sheet (use foil for easy cleanup). Bake on the lower rack turning halfway about 25 minutes, or until thoroughly cooked and browned. Blot on a paper towel and serve with a dipping sauce of Sweet Thai Chili Sauce. -- sf |

Probably too late now, but I like the flour tortilla roll-ups.
Spread a squared-up tortilla with veggie (or other flavor) room temp cream cheese. Lay a thin slice of ham over it. Put a dill pickle about a half inch from one edge. Roll up fairly tightly and chill until firm. Slice into pinwheels, however thick you want them. N. |

Pineapple chunks wrapped in bacon (cut the slices to the appropriate length to wrap the chunk, secure with toothpick) Bake at 350. Steve mentioned stuffed mushrooms, I'm a sucker for those.

If you don't have a stand mixer here's a hint: slightly melt the cheese in the microwave and let the sausage come to almost room temp. (Paranoid people need not apply.) They're easier to roll and mix with the <gasp> bisquick type baking mix. Quite tasty! > Except the dreaded grape jelly meatballs. > I'd forgotten all about those!

> I need a recommendation for a simple appetizer for someone who is > woefully inept at making them€”me! One of the simplest involves no skills at all other than a little prety plating. Box of pretty round cracker/waifers and I'd also have triscuits in squares. At this stage you build up about 1/2 the plate and let the rest be a build your own. A container of Alouette cheese dip (they sell 5 versions here), repot it ino a pretty bowl. https://www.google.com/search?q=japa...m.microsoft:en -US:IE-SearchBox&rlz=1I7MXGB_enUS514&tbm=isch&tbo=u&sourc e=univ&sa=X&ved =0ahUKEwi659aCtYvKAhVLwmMKHcSTBwIQsAQIZA&biw=1600& bih=732 or http://tinyurl.com/zxg863z I have close to 20 of that sort of small but pretty bowls. The bottoms fit perfectly into depressions on a glass serving dish I got off freecycle. There are 4 bowl fittings across the back so I'd do 2 cheese types at the center set then one end would get chopped black olives and the other might be minced green onions with some of the bulbs cut to round slices. Using the center of the tray, I'd setup several crackers of both types with the cheese then add a few olive pieces and a little green onion. Then surround with more crackers and have some nice looking utensils about. Basically it looks like you did something fancy but it's easy and fast. It's also a grow with it sort of thing so in my case I could put one cheese out (other in reserve) and fill the remaining bowl with sliced cherry tomatoes or a jarred pimiento or sun dried tomatoes etc. Here's another since you asked for really simple ones. Pinwheels are really easy to put together. 1 pack flour tortillas filling How much filling depends on size of tortilla and your desires but you are aiming to spread this no more than 1/2 thick (most go more to 1/3 inch). What to use for filling varies. The above cracker set works well. Pimento cheese works (lay green onion tops at about 4-5 'leaves' per roll) add black olives, roll then slice with a sharp knife so you cut through the onion. Cream cheese and grape or strawberry jelly works well if there are also kids around. Any filling that will pretty much hold together is a workable one here. You can even use tuna or chicken salad but make it a firm one. To make it festive, add some color contrast such as thin sliced bell pepper (or jarred pimento), green onion tops, or whatever seems will match in flavors to the main base. Now roll it up and slice and you are done! Place on plate somewhat haphazardly for better looks and have tongs so folks can serve themselves. Slicing is normally at 1/2-3/4 inch thick (too thin and they fall apart). For wraps, you can also preslice anything that would be long (such as green onions) then slice about 1/2 the 'loaf' and leave the knife with the rest in a 'serve your own' style. You can also upscale the wrap by using lettuce leaves, spinach, nappa cabbage etc. for the wrapper instead of the flour tortilla but they can be a bit more finicky to roll up pretty and stay together. They are more normally done in small individual packages secured with a toothpick. If you want a cooked one, I think this is called Rumaki? Chicken livers wrapped in a slice of raw bacon then baked in cream of mushroom soup (the soup is discarded afterwards and a southern white sauce/gravy used for display). The canned soup should come up to almost 1/2 way the livers. It's not diluted. It will be very salty and greasy so that's why it's discarded then you can make a gravy for serving. To keep this really easy, look at the packaged ones. There will be at least one for 'biscuit gravy' that makes a white one. Often has black pepper in it and that will work well. Carol -- |

After 12 minutes I take them out of the oven and roll them over in the pan. They look a bit 'naked' if I don't. If you have a KitchenAid mixer it makes this chore a breeze. I also use a small scoop to dish out the mixture and then roll into balls. Pretty consistent size. |

Some people like them even hotter and will add a few dashes of cayenne pepper to Bisquick mixture before adding the sausage and cheese. |
