Hi Reader, Whether you're entertaining for the holidays or watching the big game on TV, appetizers and snacks are a must. These fan favorites are sure to please all types of eaters: 😋 Hummus made with sesame seeds instead of store-bought tahini: Kyler on Pinterest said, "I will never buy Tahini again! This is the perfect recipe and it doesn’t require me to have any special ingredients that I can only use once. I made a double batch and my family loved it so much it disappeared in three days! I use sesame seeds in a lot of the Asian food I cook so I always have some on hand. The seeds are also a lot easier to work with than tahini." 😋 Vegan Cauliflower Ceviche: Whenever I bring this dish to a potluck, it's always the first to run out. It's that good. 😋 Vegan Spinach Artichoke Dip: This recipe is courtesy of my friend Brandi from The Vegan 8. Heather said, "I made this for my family's Christmas Eve gathering. It was a huge hit and no one could tell that it had no real cheese in it! Relatively easy to make as well. Would 10/10 recommend and will be making this again!" Love and Veggies, Amy P.S.

Hi Reader, If Brussels sprouts have ever felt a little… meh, this recipe is here to change that. These Brussels sprouts with sun-dried tomatoes get roasted until browned and crispy, then finished with my quick sun-dried tomato pesto (it takes just a few minutes in the food processor). It’s bold, tangy, and ridiculously easy, which is basically my favorite kind of side dish. Get the recipe for Crispy Brussels Sprouts with Sun-Dried Tomatoes Love and Veggies, Amy
