Amuse-bouches, hors d’oeuvres & appetizers, oh my!\u00a0You don\u2019t need a lot of time or creative flare to pull together an elegant spread of party-worthy bites. Take a look at our favorite ways to kick off the festivities without breaking a sweat.<\/p>\n

Grissini<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Grissini<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/strong>You often find these crisp Italian breadsticks dressing up the tables in restaurants across Italy, but here Grissini gets a lot of curious looks for its long shape. Rolled with fennel, green olives and olive oil, our Grissini<\/a> has wonderful flavor on its own, but we love to wrap it with thinly sliced prosciutto just like they do in Italy.<\/p>\n

Sardinian Flatbread<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Sardinian<\/a><\/p>\n

The Seeded Sardinian Flatbread<\/a> is the newest addition to our flatbread selection. Each piece is adorned with toasted sesame, poppy and fennel seeds, adding extra color, texture and flavor to your holiday table. Top with a savory jam and favorite cheese, serve with charcuterie or break them apart and dip in one of our housemade spreads<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Crostini<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Cranberry<\/a><\/p>\n

Like the Sardinian Flatbread, our Crostini\u00a0is a delicious\u00a0blank slate. We have Crostini available in different flavors, but this time of year we reach for our Cranberry Apricot Nut Crostini<\/a>. Mingling the flavors of dried fruit, toasted nuts and a hint of clove, this Crostini is a nice balance of sweet and savory. Pair it with our Potted Cheese<\/a> or top with creamy fromage blanc and a drizzle of honey for a perfect party appetizer.<\/p>\n

Francese Crostini<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Pane<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/strong>For those who don\u2019t mind spending a little extra time in the kitchen, you can whip up a full-flavor Francese Crostini<\/a> in a snap! Simply toast a sliced loaf of Pane Francese<\/a>, spread it with our Fig & Olive Tapenade<\/a> and then top it all off with some toasted pine nuts for a crowd-pleasing snack everyone will think you spent hours on.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
