All the fun & yummy Christmas appetizers and party ideas I could find that made my mouth water or made me think my family would love it as well!

So here they are in no particular order:

>
Fruit Pizza Christmas Wreath – so festive, fun and delicious!

Mini Cheese Ball Bites – the pretzel stick is genius! Cuts down on using serving utensils & for clean up!

Cinnamon Pull Apart Bread with beautiful Christmas garnishes. Perfect for a brunch or to take to a party.

Sparkling Sugared Cranberries. A perfect topping for almost anything during the holidays.

Berry Cheesecake Salad. Or is it dessert??? Either way the colors are beautiful and it’s a great recipe to make before your guests arrive. It’s light & fluffy but so rich and full of flavor.

The Perfect Holiday Punch for the entire family!

Individual Party Salads. I can’t tell you how much I love having this option (and a veggie) at a party or holiday gathering.

Holiday Steak Bruschetta. Everything you love in one bite, Steak, crusty bread, fig and Thyme.

Spicy Cranberry Barbecue Meatballs. A easy dish to make or bring to your holiday party.

Million Dollar Dip. I assure you this dip will not be ignored by your guests. It’s so good!

Puff Pastry Ham and Cheese Puffs. Don’t they look amazing? Ham is the signature meat for Christmas and these will be a hit at any gathering.

Turkey Cranberry Pinwheels. I mean, c’mon! The most festive platter to serve. Christmas tree included!

Bacon Wrapped Jalapeno Poppers for your guest who love spicy food!

Easy Cheese Wreath. Big presentation but made with little effort. My favorite kind of dish to make.

Cheese Wedges. Such a fun idea for kids & adults.

Cranberry and Brie Bites. I don’t think you can go wrong serving these. I mean, look at how pretty they are. Perfect for Aunt Jane to sink her teeth into.

Cherry Cheesecake Dip. Your family will gather around this dish for sure. Also, the steps are SO easy. Again, remember simple dishes are always the best.

Bruschetta Cheese Ball. Doesn’t it look fabulous? The colors are perfect for Christmas!

Beef Tenderloin Crostini with Whipped Goat Cheese and Pesto. A nice protein to serve but another dish that is easy to prepare but makes a big statement.

Dessert Tray. There’s not a recipe to this tray, but the post is full of party ideas. I also thought this picture is a good reminder not to sweat the small stuff. Like arranging individual trays. Sometimes a big combined presentation makes a bigger impact & of course going up in height makes a fun impact as well.

Appetizer Meat and Cheese Board. Another example of how grouping things together on a platter, board or a layered tray makes a big impact. Less fuss, y’all. It’s the easy details that makes a great party.

Chalkboard Tape on serving platters. There’s some serious genius ideas in this post, but I gotta say I love me some chalkboard tape to label all the food!

Christmas Appetizers and Party Ideas. Amazing and delicious Christmas recipes to try this holiday!
