Appetizer and Snack Recipes

These are the recipes I use when I need a little something to share when invited over to another boat to watch the sunset. I've combined Appetizers with Snacks because that's exactly how I enjoy them - as a prelude to dinner or a pick-me-up in the middle of the day.  The Lemony White Bean Dip can last several days in the refrigerator and can be made with ingredients from your pantry (plus a lemon!)

  • Plantain Chips with Sriracha Yogurt Dip
  • Baba Ganoush that's worth the effort
  • Roasted Sweet Potato Wedges with Lime Yogurt Sauce
  • Sweet Heat Pecans
  • Polenta Rounds
  • Lemony White Bean Dip
  • Grilled Corn and Black Bean Salsa
  • Steamed Hard-cooked Eggs
  • Avocado Lime Deviled Eggs
  • Spinach Yogurt Dip
