When it comes to appetizers- soups & salad reign supreme. & while I love both…they’re tough to do easily when you have a crowd. But skewers? Those pretty much KILL IT in simplicity! These are about half the size & a nice healthy snack- perfect on game day or potlucks where people tend to be walking around. Because if you’ve ever had someone accidentally spill salad dressing on your couch…you understand the tragedy!
So this recipe is completely customizable- but this is one of my favorites! If you’re torn because some of these ingredients aren’t your favorites, feel free to swap them out! Not sure if your crowd will dig the strong gorgonzola flavor? Try smoked mozzarella! Ham not your thing? Try Cajun turkey! See? Simple!The Anti-Salad Healthy Appetizer Skewers Recipe
