Quick & Easy Appetizers Everyone Will Love with ShopRite

This holiday season it’s no secret that it will be a little different… There will be less traveling, less catching up in person, and less physical interaction with those you love – but that doesn’t mean you can’t gather for Friendsgiving virtually!

Speaking of Friendsgiving, we all know that one friend who ALWAYS has the best appetizers. She is the one who always hosts, is super gracious, & somehow always has the best wine too. I know when I gather for Friendsgiving at my friend who is the hostest with the mostest, I head straight to the appetizers & I honestly look forward to it every year! But since I won’t be able to gather at her place this year, I am planning on making my life a little easier by whipping up appetizers in under 5 minutes instead of taking hours to put something together! After all, you’re the one who will be cleaning up the mess after the zoom call!

Since I’ll be keeping it simple this year, I wanted to share my go-to quick, easy, & simple appetizer that are not only easy clean up but also easy to make in under 5 minutes!

Appetizer #1:

Sabra Roasted Pine Nut Hummus with Sliced Cucumbers

This may seem obvious, but I feel like this is an underrated combination! For those of us trying to have a healthier option, sliced cucumber is perfect for that! Honestly, I use this as a cracker substitution on my charcuterie boards all the time. Plus there is something magical about a crisp cucumber and a dollop of Sabra Roasted Pine Nut Hummus that is just so refreshing!

Appetizer #2:

Bowl & Basket Pretzel Rods with Tostinos Salsa Con Queso

Pretzel Rods are the ultimate dipping vehicle! Hear me out – they are crunchy, delicious, and have the perfect balance of salt on them. I think the key here is warming up the Tostinos Salsa Con Queso. Can you eat it cold? Yes of course – but it’s definitely not as tasty. If you’re feeling extra spicy add some sriracha to it to kick it up a notch too and dip those Bowl & Basket Pretzel Rods away!

Appetizer 3:

Bowl & Basket Krinkle Cut Potato Chips & Ritz Crackers with Quick French Onion Dip with Daisy Sour Cream

Now this one seems obvious and truly everyone needs to have this dip in their life. You a) can make this in under 2 minutes and b) you probably already have all the spices you need to whip it up in your kitchen right now! All you need is the following:

Quick French Onion Dip

1-2 cups Daisy Sour Cream

1/8th cup dried chopped onions

1 tbsp onion salt

1 tbsp parsley

1 tsp dill (optional)

top with fried crispy onions (optional)

Mix together and serve chilled – seriously nothing better than a Bowl & Basket Krinkle Cut Potato Chips or a Ritz Cracker dipped in this simple dip!

No matter what you end up choosing to make for your appetizers this holiday season, it’s easy to get everything you need at your local ShopRite stores.
