Roasted Pecans
Ingredients
- 2 cups pecan halves
- 4 Tbsp. butter, melted
- 1 Tbsp. Worcestershire Sauce
- 1 Tbsp. garlic salt
- 1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper, optional
My grandparents always roasted up pecans for the Christmas holidays and eating them takes me back to their kitchen. They're an easy little snack to make that will get eaten up before they go bad (theoretically they could last a few weeks though)!

This is an easy and elegant starter. It's warm brie topped with honey-drizzled dried fruits. The combination of dried fruits and nuts listed below is my favorite, but feel free to switch it up to you favorite, seasonally, or just whatever you have on hand. It's a great way to buy you some time for the finishing touches for dinner, or just a fantastic snack to have with a glass of wine. Enjoy!
These Halloween deviled eggs are a fun twist on a classic! Expect yours to look a little more green - the coloring didn't come out well in the picture. To get the marbled effect on the yolks I cracked the shells on the boiled eggs and soaked in them in water dyed purple with food coloring for a few days - they came out looking amazing!
A classic Easter starter with a twist: the eggs are first pickled in a beet brine for 24 hours and then deviled. The beet juice gives them a beautiful pink color and the pickling brine gives them a nice briny bite. A great additions to your spring buffet!
These cheesy little bites are a great addition to a charcuterie board!
This chicken salad is ideal for winter days when you're craving chicken salad, but looking for something a little more seasonal. The bell pepper adds a great crunch while the pepper jelly adds a nice wintery flare. Enjoy as a sandwich, salad, or in phyllo cups for a last minute party!
These little finger sandwiches are quick to throw together and use a lot of ingredients you probably have around the house during the holidays. They make a great addition to a buffet table or an impressive snack to throw together for an office party or last minute holiday party!
This is a savory cheesecake meant to be sliced VERY thin or spread on crackers - it's very rich, so a traditional-size slice of cheesecake would be way to much. It's a great member of holiday buffet or appetizer spread. The image below is of a smaller version where I halved the recipe; I also used basil jelly instead of the recommended pepper jelly - both are a great a festive topping! You could also omit the breadcrumb crust and just cook it in a casserole dish to make a great dip.
As with any meatball, these can be made in advance and reheated the day of. They go great with the yogurt-tahini dipping sauce too. An elegant upgrade to a meatball, these are a great addition to any cocktail party!
Make this easy dough a few days in advance and then bake a day or two before serving. They keep well in an airtight container and go great with cocktails!
