Pillsbury Appetizers: Small Bites Packed with Big Flavors from America's Most Trusted Kitchens

Ordered this book when looking for specific books on appetizers. Must say I'm quite pleased with it. Most receipes are easy to follow, with basic ingredients. It has 'menus' for events and special arrangements in the book too. That was a great surprise and very useful. I will look for other books like this for future purchases.

I reviewed this book along with the other Pillsbury C'mon Over!: Hassle-Free, Hustle-Free Entertaining appetizer cookbook thinking they would have many of the same recipes, however, I was pleasantly surprised to see that it did not. I couldn't find any recipes that were the same. I really liked this Pillsbury Appetizer cookbook, it had a great goat cheese crostini that I served at a holiday buffet with Sauvignon Blanc wine. It was delish. I also made the Petite Stuffed Pizza snacks for a son's sleepover and they were no quick and simple to make. It was made using refrigerated parmesan breadsticks spread out and cut into squares. I was very impressed with the ease of use of this cookbook. There are quite a few pictures all clearly showing the foods. Every recipe comes with serving size, calories, fat, and exchange information. It would certainly help those needing that information. I would also recommend the Pillsbury C'Mon Over book as well. I really liked it too.

I got this book from the library to see if there were any new appetizers I would like to make. There were so many, that I decided it was worth the money to just buy the book. I'm so happy that I did. The recipes are clear and do not call for ingredients that are hard to find or "exotic" in nature. Just your basic and everyday ingredients. It was well worth buying. I've used the recipes for many a Sunday football days!

This book is FABULOUS! There are so many photos and so many simple, easy and excellent appetizers. I'm a very picky eater, but I have tried 6 of the appetizers already and received rave reviews from my guests and I loved them myself. I have already repeated one of the appetizers 3 times and I've only owned the book for 2 months! For anyone looking for a new twist with easy to find, everyday products, this is the book for you! I can't recommend it enough!

If you buy only one appetizer recipe book for your kitchen, this would be a great one. I have lots of appetizer books but this has become my favorite and I've bought it for several friends. Plenty of easy to make recipes with easy to find ingredients that have got raves from my family and friends. Try the Crostini with Brie and Cherry Relish, Crab and Asiago Bundles and Creamy Cheese Spread with Brandied Cranberries. This is not a collection of exotic recipes that will turn off some people, just great food that will make your all your guests happy. There is also a section on snacks and beverages. I love this book!
