Well, 2020 is Finally coming to an end and good riddance! Many of us will still be social distancing and spending New Year's Eve at home. In this 15 Must-Try New Year's Eve Appetizers post, I'm highlighting some tasty appetizers that you can enjoy while watching the Twilight Zone marathon. Wait, am I the only one who does that Every. Single. New Year's Eve?
1. Smoked Salmon Dip
You're going to love this Smoked Salmon Dip Recipe! It's a creamy dip, made with smoked salmon, cream cheese, and fresh dill. This salmon dip also happens to be low-carb and Keto friendly!
2. Keto Jalapeno Poppers
If you love ordering jalapeño poppers at your favorite restaurant, I'm going to show you how easy it is to prepare Keto Jalapeno Poppers at home! And guess what? They don't need to be breaded or deep-fried either. This means that you can enjoy them if you are on a Keto or Low Carb diet!
3. Greek Yogurt Cream Cheese Dip (Jajik)
Greek Yogurt "Cream Cheese" Dip is also known as Jajik. The yogurt is drained to remove the whey, then mixed with herbs, scallions, and hot chili peppers. Serve this delicious yogurt-cheese spread with toasted Sourdough or Seed Crackers.
4. Potato Chop (Meat-Filled Potato Patties)
Potato Chops are crispy potato patties that are stuffed with perfectly seasoned ground beef filling. Although they're traditionally made with potatoes, I'll show you how to make them with boxed potatoes. It's a much easier way to prepare them and just as tasty!
5. Easy Stuffed Mushrooms
Piping hot, cheesy mushroom caps, loaded with a mixture of cream cheese, cheddar, fresh dill, diced jalapeños, and minced garlic. Oh yeah, did I mention they're also low carb?
6. Cheese Burek/Borek
These Mediterranean egg rolls are known as Burek or Börek. They have a light and crunchy exterior and a hot-cheesy filling. These crunchy cigars will get rave reviews from your family and friends!
7. Layered Mexican Bean Dip
Layered with refried beans, cream cheese, salsa, and shredded cream cheese, this Layered Mexican Bean Dip it's almost begging for a chip! For an extra spicy version, add some of my Roasted salsa!
8. Zucchini and Corn Fritters with Dipping Sauce
These Zucchini and Corn Fritters are crispy on the outside and tender in the center. They're big on flavor, easy to make, and sure to be a new family favorite! Serve them with Buffalo Ranch Sauce (recipe included) or with my Yogurt Dip for a healthier option!
9. Vietnamese Spring Rolls
This Vietnamese Spring Rolls recipe is authentic, healthy, and absolutely delicious! The spring rolls are relatively easy to prepare, once you get the hang of it. If you do mess up on the first few rolls, just eat the evidence. Shhh, no one needs to know. 😉 Serve them with my spicy Peanut Dipping Sauce.
10. Carne Asada Fries
If you've never tried Carne Asada fries before, let me assure you that they are just as amazing as they sound! Crispy fries are smothered in melted shredded cheese and topped with creamy guacamole, sour cream, pico de gallo, and diced Carne Asada, yum!

Gourmet Mini Pizzas that you can prepare using store-bought flatbread. Let your imagination run wild as you consider the various topping possibilities, or use some of my tried and tested topping suggestions!

These Filipino Lumpia are light and Crispy, with a juicy ground meat and vegetable filling. Not to mention, they're easy to prepare. The entire process takes less than an hour, start to finish.
