Mini Bites Recipes - The Perfect Party Appetizer

Although I love parties, I usually have to eat before I go, so I don't starve. I am sure all of you can sympathize. In order to solve that inevitable problem, I always bring at least one appetizer or main dish, so I can eat. Despite my diligence, I am shocked when my vegan food gets eaten before anything else on the table.

First, Greek Mini Bites are easy to make, and they make the perfect party appetizer. Not only are they bite sized, they are low in fat, and contain very few ingredients. They are also quite appealing on the plate.

Sometimes, I tell everyone the food I brought is vegan, so I make sure I get some. Other times, though, I leave it my little secret to see what happens. Interestingly enough, my Vegan Tangy Crock Pot Meatless Meatballs fool even the pickiest meat eater. Another popular appetizer that gathers the meat eaters, is my Skinny “Cheesy” Spinach Artichoke Dip…Fat Free and Fabulous, and of course my Vegan Sausage Stuffed Mushroom Appetizer.

So, the next time you go to a family party, where you wonder if you can eat, don't hesitate. Bring something you can eat, smile, and watch everyone gobble your appetizer first.
