Yummy Easy Peasey Appetizers
July 13th, 2007OK, so peasey is not a word. This week’s entertaining recipes are fabulous. Aside from being yummy, you only need three ingredients to make them. They are quick and easy to prepare.
Sweet and Sour Meatballs
1 pkg. of frozen prepared Swedish Meatballs (you can use Safeway’s M&M meats, etc)
1 jar of Heinz’s Chili Sauce
1 500ml jar of Welch’s Grape Jelly
Directions
Mix the liquids in a large pot, bring to a boil and add the meatballs. Simmer for 20 - 30 minutes. Serve with toothpicks and French bread to mop up the sauce.
This will feed a large crowd 12 people min.
Chili Cheese Dip
This dip was first served to us by 14- year-old Jacob, who prepared it himself, and is one of his favourite happy hour snacks. It was love at first bite for me and a few others that afternoon. Thank you Jacob. This one is a also quick and easy to prepare.
1 pkg. of soften cream cheese
1 can Stag chili
1 cup of grated cheese (white cheddar, Monteray Jack etc.)
(If you are a fusser, you can add, just before you serve, a small amount of chopped green onions and diced tomatoes on top)
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Spread cream cheese in the bottom of a round glass dish. Spread chili on top. Sprinkle with cheese. Bake until hot and bubbling. Before serving add onions and tomatoes. Serve with nacho or taco chips and cold beer. Ola!
