When I want to bring something healthy but impressive to a party I’ll make little skewers with grape tomatoes, fresh basil, mozzarella cubes or little fresh mozzarella balls, and bell pepper chunks. You can either marinate the skewers in an Italian dressing before serving or serve alongside a balsamic reduction for drizzling. A fresh and pretty option on the appetizer buffet table.

I would definitely reach for those! Yum and so fresh. I will also jot this idea down in my Christmas planning notes for a red and green appetizer. Thanks Kelly :)

Those look great! But I cannot do that ranch dip mix or anything else similar anymore. I must be allergic to something in them. I would have to find my own spices to add. Individual spices from jars (single whole ingredient) don’t bother me.

These are going to go on my Christmas baking list! I like to have a mix of sweet and salty treats to keep things a little more balanced. Thanks for the idea! Merry Christmas to you and yours!

I hope that you enjoy them as much as our family does! I just made my first batch of the season this afternoon, and I’m trying to resist the temptation to gobble them all down immediately! :-)
