Delicious Thanksgiving Appetizer Ideas for a Memorable Family Gathering

In summary, for Thanksgiving appetizers, there are plenty of options for both meat-eaters and vegetarians/vegans. Some delicious and easy ideas include bacon-wrapped dates, cranberry brie bites, and stuffed mushrooms. You can also prepare make-ahead appetizers like cheese and charcuterie boards, deviled eggs, and spinach artichoke dip. To incorporate traditional Thanksgiving flavors, use ingredients like cranberries, pumpkin, and sage in dishes such as cranberry and brie crostini, pumpkin hummus, and sage and sausage stuffed mushrooms. And for a unique twist, you can even grill appetizers like vegetable skewers, jalapeno poppers, and shrimp with a citrus marinade.

What would you recommend to make as an appetizer for Thanksgiving? I am getting together with my entire family! I wanted to do the brie bites, but remembered that they always already have brie out.
Any suggestions are welcomed!!
Thanks!
 
I'd say the apricot brie, I take that to EVERYTHING...
 
The Artichoke Bread Bowl is amazing! Instead of hollowing out a bowl, I just use a Simple Additions Medium Bowl and double the recipe and warm that up in the oven along with the bread. It's also really good with crackers!
 
Elegant Artichoke Cups are always a hit.

Thanks ladies... those are good I ideas. I have already done the artichoke cups and artichoke dip to other family things... and the phyllo wrapped asparagus... humm.. maybe a repeat. They were all loved!
 
We're doing the brie thing, too (by my daughter's request), and my husband will be making his very popular chimol (Salvadoran salsa). He usually does all the chopping by hand, but I'm going to try (again) to convince him to use the Food Chopper this year.
 
Sarah - try the Salad Chopper. That may be more to his liking.
