Cooking for Two
Recipes for appetizers and snacks.
Baked oysters, in shell, in 15 minutes! An ultimate seafood appetizer for a special meal or entertaining. I don’t enjoy oysters as much as my Daughter and Daughter-in-Law. They were the taste testers for this recipe. I heard perfect, delicious, and yummy to describe the oysters.
These little meatballs are flavorful, and the sauce makes them come alive. They are special enough to use for the holidays or a special occasion.
I have enjoyed this warm dip for several years. I like artichoke hearts a lot, and their flavor shines through in this recipe. The dip is creamy, warm, and very satisfying. You won’t miss the spinach; the artichoke is the star in this recipe.
When we made these nuts, we couldn’t stop eating them. They are so delicious. They are simple to make, so you may find yourself making them often. The toffee is crunchy but not hard. What a treat for the holidays or anytime you are craving …
These may look small, but they are big on flavor. The puff pastry is the perfect vehicle for the cheese, pear, and onion flavors. They are wonderful right out of the oven or at room temperature.
No crust is needed for these delicious mini quiches. The ham and cheese, with the spices, make these great-tasting little “muffins” of goodness. Make them for brunch, or as a perfectly sized appetizer for a party.
I fell in love with this cheese immediately. It is mild, creamy, and delicious. The crunch of pecans, spiced apricot, and cranberries goes so well with the cheese flavor.
We both enjoy Brie. This recipe makes a wonderful savory spread. Bethany tried brie for the first time this year. My good friend, Leah, showed me how good this cheese is. Thank you, Leah. You can serve this warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
These cheese balls are the perfect size and taste amazing. They blend creamy and crunchy with wonderful flavor notes from chives and cranberries. Make them any time of the year, especially around Thanksgiving and Christmas. They are beautiful and won’t disappoint.
We’ve been trying different flavors in food lately. This creamy red pepper and walnut dip with mild spices is delightful. It’s fresh, and we both enjoyed the flavor. We served it with homemade pita chips and fresh vegetables.
