That said, I started way early this year with my shopping. I got into the holiday spirit in November because I like twinkly lights and buying things for people, and hey, 2018 was a mixed bag of weird and wild and I know many of us are happy to welcome 2019. So I thought I’d enjoy these last few months of the year, because I like ending on a high note. Like this:

Christmas Appetizers: Santa Hat Cheese & Red Bell Pepper Appetizer:

What You Need:

Monterey Jack Cheese Cracker Cuts
2 Red Bell Peppers
4 oz Cream Cheese (softened)
Town House Flatbread Crisps

What You Do:

1 – First, cut the bell peppers in half and clean out all the seeds, and then rinse well

2 – Next, cut the peppers into small triangles and pat dry with a paper towel

3 – Take the cheese and cut each piece in half

4 – Then, place one piece on a cracker and top with a Santa hat (pepper)

5 – Place the softened cream cheese into a sandwich size baggie

6 – Snip off a small piece of the corner – a piping bag can be used as well

7 – Next, pipe 5-6 dots along the bottom of the pepper and 1 dot on the top to create the Santa hat

8 – Lastly, serve and enjoy this festive holiday appetizer.

Can we all just say that these are adorable? Also, they’re tasty because the Town House Flatbread Crisps have a lot of flavor! I first had them at my parent’s house over Thanksgiving and Des begged me to buy them again. Had to do it!
