Re: Easter apps?

I always host like 35 people, so I do a lot of apps.

I always order a cheese tray and an antipasto platter.

I usually do spinach dip in a bread bowl with bread, crackers, etc.

I do some kind of cold shrimp - shrimp cocktail, and last year I made a cold marinated shrimp with fresh parsley, garlic, lemon, olive oil.

Sometimes I make brie bites - mini phyllo cups with raspberry jam, cubes of brie, and a pecan piece, heated up until melted. Or homemade cheese puffs.

I make baked clams.

Sometimes sausage stuffed mushrooms.

I like to add in one or two new things each year, but haven't finalized my menu yet, so would love some new ideas!

Re: Easter apps?

I always do the same apps just rotated. This is probably what I'll have:

guacamole and chips

spinach dips and chips

shrimp cocktail

scallops wrapped in bacon

cheese and cracker platter

Re: Easter apps?

Baked triple veggie dip - from kraft. It's my go-to. SO delicious. I don't chop anything b/c it's too much of pain. I'm sure you could play around with it too if you wanted to use fresher ingredients.

1-1/2 cups KRAFT Grated Parmesan Cheese, divided

1 can (1 lb. 3 oz.) asparagus spears, drained, chopped

1 pkg. (10 oz.) frozen chopped spinach, thawed, drained

1 can (8-1/2 oz.) artichoke hearts, drained, chopped

1 tub (8 oz.) PHILADELPHIA Chive & Onion Cream Cheese Spread

1/2 cup KRAFT Real Mayo Mayonnaise

HEAT oven to 375ºF.

MIX 1-1/4 cups Parmesan with all remaining ingredients.

SPOON into 2-qt. baking dish; top with remaining Parmesan.

BAKE 35 min. or until dip is heated through and top is lightly browned.


eta: I'm not hosting but I'm bringing an app, side, and dessert. That's my app.

We'll be away for Easter this year but I usually make stuffed mushrooms and they're a big hit!
