Three healthy holiday appetizer recipes, each with 5 ingredients or less!

Have you ever gone to a restaurant and just ordered appetizers for dinner?  I totally have!

If I could live off of appetizers for the rest of my life, I’d be one happy lady.

Sadly, many appetizers are wrapped in layers of puff pastry or loaded with cheese, which makes me feel not so great an hour later.  Appetizer guilt.  It’s a thing.

So today I’m excited to share an alternative to those heavy, unhealthy appetizers I’m talking about.  I have three healthy appetizer recipes for us, and guess what?  They also happen to be SUPER easy to make!  Five-ingredients-or-less-kind of easy.

Today’s post is in partnership with Summer Fresh, who are here to help with your holiday entertaining.

It’s the holiday season.

You’re busy.  I’m busy.  Our to-do lists seem to get longer every day.

We don’t have to slave in the kitchen to pull off a killer party platter, and guess what?  We don’t have to!  I’m here to show you how, with some shortcuts using Summer Fresh Dips.

Frist up: Gyro Chicken Wonton Bites.  Hiiii delicious!  I haven’t used wonton wrappers in ages (not since these cinnamon sugar wonton chips way back in the day), and it was time to bust them out again.

They are the perfect crispy vessel for chicken, cucumber, tomatoes and Summer Fresh tzatziki.  Kai helped me pick up the ingredients and it was so cute hearing him say ‘sasiki’.  He he.

These gyro chicken wonton bites are ready in just 20 minutes if you use pre-cooked rotisserie chicken.  Just bake up your wonton wrappers, let them cool, and fill.  They even keep for a few hours after filling (I’d leave off the tzatziki until just before serving).
