Effortless Holiday Bites ✨
Crowd-pleasing appetizers that can be prepped ahead and enjoyed without spending hours in the kitchen.
If there’s one thing I love during the holidays, it’s big flavour without the stress. Enter: my Holiday Bites—easy, crowd-pleasing appetizers that can be prepped ahead and enjoyed without spending hours in the kitchen.
Holiday Bites Round-Up 🍽️
These are a few of my go-to appetizers when I want variety, colour, and serious flavour on the table:
Asian Meatball Lettuce Wraps 🥬
Beef Kofta with Tahini 🥙
Chicken Pot Stickers with Hoisin 🥟
They’re festive, flexible, and perfect for mixing and matching. I love that they feel special while still being low-effort—my favourite combination.

Homemade Crackers > Store-Bought (Always)
Why buy fancy crackers when you can make them at home for a fraction of the cost—and with even more flavour?
These homemade fruit + nut/seed crackers are a must-try 🙌
They’re crunchy, lightly sweet, and perfect for:
cheese boards
gifting
or snacking straight off the baking sheet (no judgment!)
The recipe is simple and endlessly versatile. I hope you love them as much as I do 💛
A Latke Glow-Up 🌟
Classic latkes, but make them better. This year, I added in sweet potatoes for more flavour and extra nutrients—and honestly, I may never go back. Crispy, comforting, and perfect for celebrating.
Do you have any latke mashups you love? I’d really love to hear what’s cooking in your kitchen.
✨ Happy Festival of Lights to all those celebrating! Find the recipe here
Baked Brie with Pecans and Honey 🧀
This un-BRIElievable baked brie with pecans and honey is everything you want in a holiday appetizer—warm, gooey, sweet, and just fancy enough to impress. Perfect for gatherings… or a cozy night in.
