You all know I love planning a good party! I almost enjoy the planning part as much as the party itself. The more we entertain, the more I value recipes and dishes that don’t take a lot of time, or can at least be made in advance.
I want it all – something that is sure to wow our guests, but without a lot of effort required the day of the event. I do everything I can to keep from being totally overwhelmed and to make sure our guests aren’t arriving to a kitchen that looks like a tornado just hit.
A charcuterie board is the mecca of easy holiday entertaining. It takes almost no skill to arrange an absolutely stunning platter. The key is starting with the right ingredients.
This cheesy spinach artichoke dip recipe is the BEST ever thanks to Real California Brie cheese. It takes just minutes to make and has only five ingredients!
You know I love a good easy recipe. I tend to overexert myself when we’re entertaining for the holidays, in part because I want our guests to have an amazing experience, and in part because I’m a terrible control freak. To compensate, I focus on simple recipes and dishes that can be partly or completely made in advance.
This cheesy spinach artichoke recipe checks all my party boxes. You can make it advance and bake it the day of, it only has five ingredients and it takes just minutes to assemble. Even a control freak like myself would feel comfortable delegating this recipe to a willing assistant – it’s that easy.
