by · Leave a Comment · Disclosure/Disclaimer · Privacy Policy

Today I am sharing an awesome appetizer my best friend, Sandi, made over Thanksgiving – Cranberry-Cream Cheese Crescent Bites! Only five ingredients!


A delicious one-bite cranberry, jalapeno, chives, cream cheese stuffed crescent appetizer, baked to perfection, that will have family and friends asking for more and begging for the recipe! Best of all, they’re a cinch to make, calling for only five simple ingredients! 

This appetizer is wonderful and so easy to make. I won’t say how many of these little bites of deliciousness I devoured…let’s just say, you’ll want to double the recipe, they are addictive!

For this appetizer you only need five ingredients – cream cheese, chopped dried cranberries, fresh chopped chives, finely seeded and diced jalapeno chile and one can of refrigerated crescent dough sheet or crescent dinner rolls….that’s it!  

 

The cream cheese filling with the jalapeno, cranberries and chives is perfection. The flavors go so well together. Your guests will be asking for the recipe, just like me.

Fiesta Corn Salsa

For this week’s tried and true, I am sharing a great Fiesta Corn Salsa. This delicious recipe is from my best friend, Sandi – she always has the best food at her get-togethers. Remember the Homemade Sourdough Ranch Pretzels and Texas Caviar? Those two awesome recipes were from her.

This past weekend, she and her husband hosted a fun barbecue. Knowing there was going to be some good food, I was smart and brought my camera. They did not disappoint. Great food all around, from drinks to dessert. The kids and adults swarmed this salsa. SWARMED! Sandi had to refill the bowl two times. The recipe makes a lot, so it’s a perfect appetizer for large gatherings.
  

Lucky me, I snagged the recipe and get to share it with all of you.
