Tips to Stress Free Appetizers:

1. Make 2 make ahead appetizers so not stressed on the day company comes! I make a dip and some type of pigs in a blanket. Make the dip and store in the fridge in the bowl you are going to serve it in. For the pigs in the blanket I assemble them and line them up on baking sheet in the fridge. Around 30 minutes before guest arrive I put them in the oven.
2. Have awesome store bought appetizers so makes life easier on you. My rule is 2 homemade and 3 store bought. I usually put out mixed nuts and a fun potato chip brand.
3. Let your guest bring something! Only rule is does not need to be heated up. This way they feel like they contributed and less for you to do!

The best part of the meal is always the appetizers. Growing up if guest came over we always had tons of awesome noshes for them. I would sneak into the fridge the night before and eat some of the cheese and other goodies my mom pre-made. This whipped ricotta dip is sooo easy to make! Literally you just wipe ricotta in a food processor and add pesto. Its light fluffy and cheesy perfection. I hope this recipe makes life happy and stress free for you so you have more time to celebrate life.

This is the perfect quick dinner that says to your family you love them and celebrate them! Cooking can be your happy place at the end of a long day just for you! While cooking dance in the kitchen, say what you are grateful for, and count your blessings! Happy Cooking!
