Hey, Reader!

It's officially here β€” football's season finale and probably the only time I don't fast-forward through the commercials. If you're going to be watching, then snacks are a must.

What makes a good appetizer? Obviously it needs to taste great, but there are other considerations as well.

If you're hosting, you're able to do a bit more with your apps. Presentation, pairings, the whole 10 yards if you will. 🏈 Think about if your guests will be seated to eat or on their feet cheering for their favorite team β€” not all apps are created equal when it comes to eating on the go!

If you're attending a watch party instead, you'll want an easy app to make ahead and transport.

Here are my favorite appetizers that are guaranteed winners, no matter who you're cheering for:

Not to fear β€” I didn't forget about the drinks! Stay tuned for some of my favorites (and if you can't wait, get inspired here.)

Enjoy!

easy, elegant entertaining Hey, Reader! Ah, March Madness. The magical time of year when those of us who don't closely follow college basketball use our intuition β€” AKA favorite colors and mascots β€” to predict which team will come out on top.
