Cutefetti’s Festive Holiday Ideas
Even the smallest holiday get-togethers can and should be made special with some extra Christmas cheer!
Dawn from Cutefetti took over our Instagram and dazzled us all with her festive holiday ideas starring frozen appetizers!
“…My first idea is a nod to shrimp appetizer trees which seemed to be popular in the 70’s. This easy take uses @seapakshrimpco Butterfly Shrimp. Simply prepare according to package directions and then lay out over a bed of curly parsley or your choice of greens. Add an extra dash of festive color with shaped peppers using small cookie cutters or halved cherry tomatoes. For a fun finishing touch, use a small star dish on top of the “tree” and fill with cocktail sauce, or add a star-shaped pepper slice…”
“…Finger foods are the best! There is something about mini kebabs that make it extra fun. Create your own unique bites by using Celentano Mini Rounds Cheese Ravioli from @rosinafoodproducts. Just prepare the ravioli according to package directions and then add to a mini kebab stick or toothpick. To make these festive, add a basil leaf and a little red pepper star or snowflake made using a cookie cutter! Add dipping sauces such as marinara to make it extra delicious!…”
“…Next up, enter this tasty appetizer tree! Turn your family gathering into an instant fiesta with @joseolecentral Taquitos! Trust me, you will hit a HO HO HOme run when you serve these! Layer a variety of Beef Taquitos and Chicken Taquitos to form a tree shape. Add veggie cutouts and/or rosemary sprigs for decorations. To take it over the top, prepare a cheese ball as a “tree topper”…”
“…This one is guaranteed to be a crowd pleaser and you’ll get to kick back and actually enjoy your family because it’s SO easy to put together! Imagine a fun appetizer in 1, 2… 3! It really IS that easy when you create mini kebabs using Celentano Italian Style Meatballs and Celentano Mini Rounds Cheese Ravioli from @rosinafoodproducts. Simply prepare according to package directions and then add to a mini kebab stick or toothpick. For the perfect festive touch, add a basil leaf to make it extra festive! Add dipping sauces such as marinara to make it extra delicious!…”
