    A large collection of healthy appetizers to help you get through the holiday season!  I collected a bunch of my favorite, healthy appetizers for your get-togethers.

    Just because you are ringing in the New Year with friends and family (or making lots of fun appetizers and staying home with your family like me), I collected a big list of healthy appetizers to choose from.  I think we can all use some healthy options after overindulging during the holidays!

    Some of my favorite recipes are Philly Cheesesteak Dip, Broccoli Cheese Dip, Spinach Artichoke Dip, Shrimp Ceviche, Buffalo Cauliflower Dip and of course my Jalapeño Poppers!

    All of these would be even more yummy with some Low Carb Bulletproof Hot Chocolate, Apple Chai Latte and definitely some Spiked Apple Cider!

      I never know what to make for appetizers but this list makes choosing easy. There are so many winning recipes in this list, I'll have to have more parties so I can make them all more often.
