Vegan Wild Mushroom Pâté
This Vegan Wild Mushroom Pâté with sautéed shallots and nutritional yeast is such a savory indulgence (and so easy to make)! For vegans, or just anyone following a more plant-based diet, pâté is something on the appetizer spread that is typically avoided. Not with this exceptional substitute!
Olive and Pomegranate Tapenade with Persimmon Chips
Tapenade is a salty condiment traditionally constructed with olives, capers, and anchovies. This recipe incorporates pomegranate molasses and fragrant spices to balance that saltiness. It makes for an excellent appetizer, served with feta and persimmon chips or as a stuffing for poultry.
Lumpfish Caviar with Sour Cream and Caper Spread
This lumpfish caviar atop baguette with sour cream spread is delish! Lumpfish roe, though not a true caviar (sourced from sturgeon), is an inexpensive stand-in for the real thing. Paired with a tangy spread and crusty bread, it makes for a beautiful appetizer with a sort of rustic elegance and is so easy to make!
Loaded Cauliflower Saffron Bake
Cauliflower Gratin is a fantastic low-carb option for a comforting, winter side dish. Try this fully-loaded bake with bacon, cheddar, green onion, saffron, and a hint of nutmeg or trade out ingredients as you see fit. This recipe can easily be made gluten free by using a gluten free flour and vegetarian by omitting the bacon.
Whipped Feta Savory Cheesecake
Savory Cheesecake with Whipped Feta, Cream Cheese, and Nutmeg Whipped is maybe one of the easiest dips to make at home, yet strays from the expected and is an impressive dish for entertaining. A spin on the traditional Greek Tyrolsalata, these mini savory cheesecakes are perfect alongside a glass of wine!
Khachapuri (Georgian Cheese Filled Bread)
Khachapuri is a decadent cheese bread from Georgia. There are many variations but this version takes on the traits of Adjaruli Khachapuri, shaped like a canoe, filled with a combination of salty and tangy cheeses, and topped with an egg yolk. We kicked up the flavor further by adding a bit of fresh nutmeg.
