Tomato and Mozzarella Bites
These tomato and mozzarella bites are a great way to serve tomato-mozzarella salad as a party appetizer. Great presentation; always a hit! You can find bite-sized mozzarella called bocconcini at most supermarkets. If they are on the larger side, cut them in half.
Fried Stuffed Squash Blossoms
These fried squash blossoms are filled with a tangy goat cheese mixture and coated in a simple, light batter that fries up golden brown and perfectly crisp. Turn those beautiful squash blossoms in your garden into a delicious appetizer with this recipe.
Antipasto
This recipe makes a huge amount. I can it and give it away as Christmas gifts. We usually make this as a group project to cut down on prep time and cost. The ingredient amounts may be altered proportionally as needed.
Caprese on a Stick
This is a great, easy finger appetizer. I came up with it because I love Caprese but it was difficult to serve at large parties. Putting the same ingredients on a toothpick yielded great results.
Watermelon Caprese Appetizer
A refreshing watermelon appetizer for the summer. My family loved this so much they ate more than a serving each. Also great for those who love the flavor of caprese but aren't huge fans of tomatoes.
Italian Tuna Spread
This Italian tuna spread recipe makes a great addition to an antipasti spread. Serve it with crostini, Melba toast, or crackers at room temperature. Store it, covered, in the refrigerator. To reuse, bring it back to room temperature; do not microwave to reheat; it will turn to goop. This also makes the best tuna fish sandwich you will ever have. Use iceberg lettuce, toasted bread, and a thin slice of tomato. Yum!
Festive Olive and Cheese Appetizer
This easy-to-assemble cherry tomato, olive, and cheese appetizer platter is arranged with fragrant rosemary sprigs to resemble a holiday wreath. Your guests will love nibbling on this beautiful display. Serve with toothpicks.
Caprese Skewers
An elegant and easy take on a classic caprese skewer dish. Great for an appetizer at a dinner party. Serve with a small bowl of balsamic vinegar and good quality olive oil for dipping.
Easy Caponata
Caponata is a Sicilian dish with eggplant, zucchini, tomato, and peppers traditionally cooked in oil and vinegar and flavored with sugar, raisins, capers, olives, and pine nuts. It's tangy, sweet, crunchy, and salty all at the same time. Serve at room temperature as a side dish to grilled fish or as a starter on toasted bread. Store leftovers in fridge and reheat gently. It will taste even better the next day!
Roasted Peppers in Oil (Peperoni Arrostiti Sotto Olio)
My Italian mother-in-law taught me how to make these roasted red peppers in oil. She doesn't have any of her recipes written down. She just makes them like she always has for years. They can also be used on bruschetta or pureed with cream and served over pasta. I usually serve them in a relish tray as a side dish to any meal.
Tortellini Skewers
This tortellini skewers recipe is easy to make and makes a pretty appetizer.
Boniet
Pronounced 'bun-yet,' this is an old world Italian recipe from my Nonie's kitchen. It is made using mainly parsley and garlic and is meant to be eaten with a crusty warm bread. It is almost sinful to share it's secret with the world but I know you'll love it as much as my family and I do. Refrigerate overnight for best flavor.
