For me the holidays are about friends gathering around amazing meals that are only made once a year. Food and the tradition of making and sharing food have always been a huge part of my life, especially at the holidays. Of course the traditional meals are some of my faves, but I also love to WOW people with flavors and recipes that they might not have expected. And having a great appetizer to pass around at your own party or bring to a potluck or office gathering is always awesome. There is nothing better then sharing your favorites with people you love around the holidays. Hopefully this will become your new go-to for all your holiday gatherings!
