Red and Green

This weekend was all about parties, parties and more parties! From birthdays to the holidays, I was making my rounds.

Sunday concluded with a pre-Hanukkah celebration with my relatives.

As I was brainstorming appetizer ideas to make for the party, I recalled a recipe my friend raved about several years ago. I was searching for a new recipe that is simple and quick; this Sun-dried Tomato and Pesto Cheese Spread fit the bill.

While assembling my tray, it suddenly occurred to me that my Hanukkah appetizer was ironically the perfect Christmas hors d’oeuvre! With vibrant red and green, the spread makes quite the festive presentation.

This appetizer is a no-brainer for December 25^th. You and your guests will thank me.
