Instructions for Thanksgiving appetizers:
Shrimp Dip
Drain can of shrimp in sink, rinse shrimp and drain again
Place block of cream cheese in middle of plate, pour cocktail sauce over top, then shrimp on top of that. Put crackers in bowl and set out to enjoy.
Deviled Eggs
Peel eggs, rinse to remove any shell tidbits and lay on paper towel to drain. Slice eggs in half, remove yellow and put into bowl. Place hallowed eggs onto serving tray. Mix egg yellows with enough miracle whip to make creamy, add a few squirts of mustard, a pinch of salt, pepper and paprika. Spoon filling into eggs and sprinkle with a bit of paprika.
Vegetable Tray
Place cut vegetables and pickles on tray with ranch dressing.
Meat and Cheese Tray
Place cuts of meat and cheese on platter along with favorite crackers. A great side for this is a spicy mustard.
Nuts, Candies, and Small Cookies
Place nuts, candies and cookies in small bowls for a little something sweet to enjoy with all the savory foods.
Keep Thanksgiving appetizers simple as you don’t want people to fill up too quickly and not truly enjoy the dinner. Set these out early, this will not only keep people out of your hair, but will keep the “I’m hungry” comments to a minimum.
Remember, the most important part of the day is spending time with your family and friends. All the food is a bonus. If ever you don’t have the money for all of the appetizers, stick with carrot and celery sticks with ranch dressing. These are inexpensive and will keep people munching.
Love you love you love you love you love you!!!
