Season’s Eatings Appetizer Recipes
If you're planning a party or attending a potluck this December, make it easy on yourself. These sweet and savory recipes will impress your guests, but even better, you can prepare them ahead of time.
Pears are certainly abundant during the holidays. Be sure to find ripe and fragrant ones for Pear and Goat Cheese Tortilla Pinwheels. Bosc pears look pretty, but tend to be less flavorful than Bartletts and Anjous when sold this time of year. When shopping, pick up each pear. If it feels heavy and the skin feels to a gentle touch, bring it right up to your nose and smell it. It should have a slightly floral aroma if ripe.
Sweet pears pair well with sharp and creamy goat cheese, and you can find a nice made-in-North Carolina variety at holiday markets, gourmet shops and farm markets. The green olives in this recipe give it a snap, while the green spinach tortillas make it look festive on your table.
