This year, I am hosting Thanksgiving.  It’s exciting yet slightly overwhelming.  My family is driving down early Thursday morning, so I need to get the turkey in the oven and the other dishes started well before their arrival.  That leaves NO room for a mistake which the thought of that starts to make me sweat.

When creating the menu for Thanksgiving, naturally I first thought of appetizers.  Why need appetizers prior to a Thanksgiving feast, you ask? Because appetizers are always a good idea.  It’s like the pre-game. Also, in our family and I am sure for a lot of other families, Thanksgiving is a day-long extravaganza.  A lot of chowing down takes place,  and a light and delicious appetizer like these are perfect for an event like Thanksgiving dinner.

Plus, you can never have too many of these crisps.  Seriously, though.

I love all of these flavor combos, but my favorites are a tie between the cherry pepper jelly ones and the cinnamon sugar apple ones.  If you give these a try, let me know!

  4. Hi! I’ve been reading your blog for a bout a couple of months now and I love your content! Seriously one of my favorite new blogs! I wish I would have commented earlier. are you going to try and stay whole30 during thanksgiving? These look so yummy. Never heard of the brand but will look for these at thes store-are they pretty Chrunchy? Brie is my favorite and I real splurge (eating wise) for me. P.s I downloaded well pin and like it so far!

    • Thank you so much, Rachel! They aren’t too crunchy, I would definitely try them. I actually stopped doing Whole30 because I had family coming in town and some other things come up, which I’ll be talking about this week 🙂

  6. Okay what do you use to cut your cucumbers so thin?? Tell me I need to know lol but great recipes I will have to buy the crackers. I always forget the name of them when I’m at the store. smh 🙂
