I'm making proscuitto and fontina cheese pinwheels--basically sliced proscuitto and grated fontina cheese rolled up in puff pastry sheets, sliced, and then baked for 20 minutes. Very yummy!
Baked Spinach & Artichoke Dip is easy to make and usually a big hit.
Here's my favorite recipe:
http://allrecipes.com//Recipe/florentine-artichoke-dip/Detail.aspx
@Amani: This one is SO good. It's hot out of the oven and then you can toast up baguette slices in olive oil to serve the dip on... DIVINE!
Ideas I gave another person.
Skewers on tooth picks:
mozzarella cheese chunk, basil leaf, 1/2 cherry tomato or
artichoke heart, olive, marinated mushroom or
roasted red pepper, smoked gouda cube, marinated mushroom, etc
Or 1/2 some cherry tomatoes and use light whipped cream cheese- stir in some pesto and then using a sandwich bag with the corner clipped (like a pastry bag) squirt some filling on the tomato
Proscitto wrapped asparagus- served hot or cold if cold steam asparagus first)
Using a muffin tin bake wonton wrappers to make cups and then fill with anything you want (greek salad sans lettuce, chicken salad made with greek yogurt)
polenta rounds pan fried (in a nonstick) to make crispy and then top with some sherry sauteed mushrooms and shaved Parmesan
Zuchinni rollatinis- bake slices of eggplant and rollup with a slice of prosciutto and a bit of laughing cow cheese mixed with cooked spinach. Serve hot and spear with a toothpick to keep together
ceviche (is actually really easy to make)
Phyllo triangles (you can stuff with anything- but try some pureed chickpeas, yogurt, lemon zest, salt, oregano, goat cheese, spinach). Just use dont soak the phyllos sheets in the traditional butter.
We're doing spinach dip with crackers & crudites, pepperoncini quiche bites, and cheese & crackers. I'm hosting for the first time ever and didn't want to bite off more than I could chew so we're going pretty simple!
If I had more time, I would basically plow my way through this fabulous list: http://www.seriouseats.com/2010/11/thanksgiving-recipe-inspiration-hors-doeuvres-appetizers-what-to-serve-at-thanksgiving.html
What about a veggie tray and/or a shrimp platter? Those are two things that go over really well at our house.
Fabulous ideas. Thanks ladies! I'm going thru them now, looking up recipes, etc. Yay!

We're supposed to bring an appetizer type of a dish tomorrow (for snacking on before dinner while drinking wine). I know there will be tons of cheese and crackers already (too bad, I like easy), so I'm trying to think of other ideas. Anyone have any favorite recipes?
