The holiday season is gearing up and that means many people will be planning their holiday parties. If you plan to have a lot of guests, but you don’t have a large enough table to seat everyone, choosing a menu that solely features appetizers is a great idea. Even if you do have room at your tables, an appetizers-only holiday party means you don’t have to worry about tying up your oven for a few hours cooking a main dish. If this is a family get together, you can even ask your family members to each bring an appetizer so that the labour is shared. Here are some of the best holiday appetizers for your Christmas party.
Avocado Feta Dip
A Christmas holiday party has to feature a good dip and this one is not only festive looking with its red and green ingredients, but healthy and gluten-free. Just pair it with crackers and you’re good to go. If you want a vegan version, just omit the feta cheese.
Roasted Cabbage with Walnuts, Parmesan and Balsamic
Your vegetarian guests will love this roasted cabbage appetizer. If you are not a fan of cabbage, try eating it roasted as roasting brings out a whole new flavour. And the side benefit is cabbage is great for your skin and includes a host of antioxidants. Walnuts add a crunchy texture to this appetizer while Balsamic adds a sophisticated flavour profile.
Low Carb Avocado Shrimp Cucumber Appetizer
One of the best holiday appetizers are these Avocado Shrimp Cucumber Appetizers – I don’t know about you, but they are calling my name! For me, a holiday party wouldn’t be the same without a shrimp appetizer. These tasty shrimp avocado bites are not only cute, but they are healthy, low carb and super easy to prepare.
Phyllo Wrapped Asparagus with Herb Sauce
Spinach Artichoke Dip
This is so helpful! I feel like we have so many things to attend this holiday seasons

Man it is so early and I am. so hungry already. I am trying to do the intermittent fasting but I am having a hard time, especially after seeing these yummy appetizer ideas. I especially love the Avocado Feat Dip…. looks divine 🙂
My sister is also doing intermittent fasting and has lost weight as a result. Sorry for tempting you! Cheers, Lori

Wow Chad…that’s very ambitious of you! Hope you have a great Thanksgiving! Cheers, Lori
Oh My Goodness!!! That avocado shrimp looks amazing!!! It reminds me of a dish I had while visiting Wilmington a couple of months ago. I will definitely be adding this to my Christmas brunch. And the wrapped asparagus looks just as tasty. I love asparagus and this seems to be a nice twist to it!
I think the Avocado Shrimp appetizer would be perfect for Christmas brunch. I made the phyllo asparagus last Christmas and everyone loved it! Cheers, Lori
