Most of us will be spending New Year’s Eve at home this year, which means you can cook up a storm for the evening. There are some standard appetizers you can make for you and your loved ones like pigs in a blanket or queso dip, but why not up your game this year? Here are some great New Year’s Eve appetizers to ring in 2021 with.

Bacon-Wrapped Dates

Bacon-wrapped anything is delicious. Bacon-wrapped dates stuffed with blue cheese are simply too good not to eat. These are also very simple to make. All you need to do is stuff some blue cheese in a pitted date, wrap it in half a slice of bacon, and let it cook until it’s crisped to perfection.

Buffalo Cauliflower Bites

These spicy little cauliflower bites are perfect for vegans and vegetarians. They’re flavorful and crispy like a chicken nugget without any of the meat. All you need are some cauliflower florets, some buffalo sauce, and the batter to bake the cauliflower in. Just be careful when deep-frying them!

Lemon Garlic Shrimp Kabobs

No evening would be complete without a touch of seafood. That’s where these kabobs come in. You simply need to slide the peeled shrimp onto the kabob, marinate them with garlic and lemon, and then either fry or bake them to perfection.
