I love entertaining and keeping it low key is my mantra!
Even a casual get-together can be stressful! Today I’m sharing a super easy Hot Apple Pie dip recipe and my tips for low stress entertaining!
- Make a guest list and send invitations by email. Keep it casual.
- Decide what you’re serving and make your grocery list. Shop 3-5 days before the party.
- Keep a few staple items on hand at all times like cream cheese, Wheat Thins, fruit, nuts.
- Set your buffet area up the night before with serve ware, beverage dispenser, silverware, napkins and plates.
- Make sure you extra ice!
- If friends offer to help, let them. Have them arrive 30 minutes before to help set up. And if they offer to bring a dish, even better!
- Have everything ready before your guests arrive, so you can enjoy the company. After all, that’s what it’s all about!
- Recipes should be simple but delicious, like this Hot Apple Pie Dip from Nabisco! No need to stress over the food.
