We have a family tradition that started when my husband was a kid, and we've continued it with our own children. All day on December 24th, we spend the day cooking and enjoying appetizers and desserts (instead of a planned meal).

Are these easy appetizer recipes?
I just love easy recipes! All of these easy appetizer recipes for a crowd need only three ingredients. If you like the idea of quick party prep, you'll also like these Easy Cookie Recipes with 4 ingredients or less.
Are these healthy appetizers?
Honestly, no, not at all. These fun appetizer recipes have lots of cheese, carbs and fat. But I love making them for a party, potluck or tailgate because I can have just a little taste and count on the guests to finish it off!

Easy Appetizers with Meat

Pinwheels make the best easy holiday appetizers! You can fill them with any variety of flavors. We like spicy salami with cool cream cheese and sweet pickles.

Who likes wings? These Crockpot Buffalo Ranch Chicken Drumsticks from The Frugal Girls are even better because you get more meat! Slow cook them along with a bottle of hot sauce and a packet of ranch seasoning for a crowd-pleaser.

These Easy Sausage Balls from My Blessed Life are quick to prep with Bisquick, bulk sausage and shredded cheddar. These are on our to-make list this year. My kids will just love them!

Celebrate the lack of school lunches with Baked Ham and Cheese Roll-ups from The Comfort of Cooking. Layer pre-made pizza dough with your favorite type of ham and sliced cheese, then bake.

Sweet and Sour Meatballs from Frugal Fanatic cook for just a few hours in the crockpot, with just frozen meatballs, ketchup and grape jelly.

Sausage Velveeta Rotel Dip from 3 Boys and a Dog is a great tailgate dip!

Crockpot Cheesy Chili Dip from Flour on my Face is so easy to throw together with just three ingredients. Plus, you could choose vegetarian chili to make this an easy vegetarian dip!

If you'd prefer a non-cheese dip, try the Black Bean Dip from Major Hoff Takes a Wife. Just warm your favorite salsa combined with black refried beans and serve with a dollop of sour cream.

Raspberry Brie Bites from The Sweets Life are an amazing combo of tangy and sweet. Just set out frozen fillo dough shells with bites of brie and a dollop of raspberry jam. Easy peasy, but they look so elegant.
