Easy Make-Ahead Appetizer Ideas for Thanksgiving

While Thanksgiving can be hectic, these make-ahead appetizers are the perfect solution to the kitchen frenzy. Prep them the day before, then simply bake or serve on the big day.

Cranberry Brie Bitesstrike

The perfect balance of sweet and savory. Cut store-bought puff pastry into small squares, place a slice of brie on each and top with a dollop of cranberry sauce and refrigerate them. Bake them at 400°F for 18-20 minutes just before your guests arrive.

 

Bacon-Wrapped Dates

An easy, elegant appetizer delivering rich flavor with every bite. Stuff dates with cream cheese, wrap each in thin bacon and secure with a toothpick. Prepare these the night before, store them in the fridge, and bake at 400°F for 15-20 minutes on Thanksgiving Day.

 

Veggie Platter with Herb Dip

A refreshing, lighter option. Slice your veggies—carrots, celery, cucumbers, and bell peppers—the night before. Whip up an herb dip using Greek yogurt, sour cream, garlic, lemon juice, and fresh herbs. Cover and refrigerate so it’s ready to go when your guests arrive.
