Soon the holidays will be here! Perfect time for those delicious appietizrs to be served for speciall times or an easy dinner.! Lots of excitement and good food will be served.
It’s the season for
Appetizers!
Who doesn’t love appetizers? The season of holidays is coming soon! I serve more ‘small meals’ and appetizers than just about any other time of the year.
Do you like to serve delicous yet simple small dishes? I know I do. Small dishes seems to be a new way to describe appetizers, starters, and tapas.
Often for us, these small dishes are served in lieu of lunch or for the interlude before a special meal like Christmas Eve. Many times I have set out food prior to a concert or Christms Eve service so we can enjoy a little food before we go out. These special events start times would make being on time and a eating a meal before a frenzied effort to feed the family and get out the door on time. To avoid that when my children were small, I laid out a selction of hot and cold appetizers for us and guests.
Traditions!
It’s a tradition we continue today. Just keep them simple!
Baked Brie is one of our all time favorites. But like most appetizers we only have it a few times a year.
Baked Brie is maybe a little snazzier because well, it has a French name and you buy it from the fancy cheese section in the grocery store.
Use a cute baking dish. Mine is a Polish Pottery heart-shaped dish. You can find it HERE.

I love baked brie but usually with a sweet topping. I don’t think I’ve ever had pepper jelly so maybe it’s something to try.
It’s sweet with a tang! In years past we used Nancy’s but don’t think she made any this past season.
I am a huge fan of brie and the addition of pepper is lovely. My hubby always makes the Velveeta and this would be a nice addition to the offerings.

Yum! Baked brie always feels like holidays to me! We usually use a fig jam, but red pepper sounds like a good option!
