    30+ Easy Party Snacks & Appetizer Recipes

    Appetizer Recipes

    Whether you’re looking for a simple snack to tide you over until dinner or are hosting a pre-game happy hour or holiday event, we’ve got easy appetizer recipes for every occasion.

    • Take our Green Olive Dip recipe, for example. This irresistible dip is quickly made in the food processor and is basically dump and go.
    • Our 7-Layer Greek Dip can be made several hours before the party. This Mediterranean version of everyone’s favorite taco dip is piled high with enough veggies that you might even be able to call it a healthy snack - or at least healthy-ish.
    • Our most popular party snacks are these 4-ingredient Bacon Cream Cheese Bites. These decadent and habit-forming bites will be the appetizer everyone looks forward to year after year.

    Don’t forget to add a sweet to your spread! A recipe for something portable - like these Rhubarb Bars - is great because you can still mix and mingle without having to hold a plate and juggle a fork.
