Thanksgiving is all about the food!  From wonderful family favorites to dishes that put a new spin on old favorites, Thanksgiving puts the E-A-T in feast! 

If you’re wondering what YOU can do to make this Thanksgiving just as special as all those that have come before, Thanksgiving appetizers are the answer! Kick off your holiday with just the right amount of charming deliciousness!  

TIP: No matter at what time you are serving your Thanksgiving meal, your family and friends will love a little bite or two to nibble as they wait. Nothing invites gathering around, settling in and catching up like a seasonal sip + appetizer or two.

Consider that guests will eat 2-3 finger food servings before a meal. This will help you decide how many appetizers and how much of each you will need to make.
