Versatile Meatloaf

Tasty appetizers are perfect for holiday celebrations, be they cocktail parties or several-course meals. Success begins with the very best ingredients. The Certified Angus Beef ® brand is so delectable, less than 8% of beef can earn the brand name. It’s always flavorful, tender and juicy.

Just like these mouthwatering appetizers!

Size Matters
Make these recipes bite-sized to serve before a big meal or slightly larger for a cocktail party. Either way, these flavorful, creative treats will please your most discriminating guests.

Serving suggestions:

  • Make appetizers small. Think one bite for less mess.
  • Use garnishes: kale, lettuce leaves, olives, parsley or lemon peel
  • Serve in interesting vessels such as hollowed bread, pumpkins or melon
  • Encourage mingling: place appetizers in several locations instead of on one table
  • Serve cold foods such as vegetables, shrimp and cubed cheese in a ring of ice
  • Stash fresh trays of appetizers in the kitchen for quick refills
