Pinwheel sandwiches are easy to assemble, look great on a platter, and are ideal for a bridal shower party. To make them, you'll layer flour tortillas with ranch-flavored mayonnaise, sliced cheese, deli meats, and lettuce. All that's left to do is roll them up tightly and slice. See, simple!

We love a dessert mashup (we see you, brookie), but what if you upped the ante and combined three sweets instead of just two? That’s exactly what we did with these bars, which combine the best of Key lime pie, coconut cream pie, and cheesecake into one next-level treat.

Doing a flower theme for your bridal shower? Make a whole bouquet of these pizza roses! They're surprisingly easy to assemble (thanks crescent roll dough) and will impress any guests too.

Summer is that beautiful time of year when both peaches and tomatoes are in season and peak quality, and this easy appetizer celebrates that. We combine peaches and tomatoes in this sweet-salty snack that goes perfectly on top of golden brown baguette slices. Tossing the fruit with just a little salt and olive oil makes the fruit shine and keeps things tasting fresh and sweet.

These are a great finger food to pile onto a platter, but would be equally delicious served with a side salad as an elegant shower brunch. You’ll be amazed at how easy they are to make (and how impressed people will be when they eat one 😀).

Get the Caramelized Onion & Goat Cheese Bites recipe.

Lobster rolls are a classic summer meal, but the truth is you don't really need the split-top hot dog buns (or melted butter if you're eating it Connecticut-style). Lightly dressed with mayo and finished off with a big squeeze of lemon juice, lobster salad tastes incredible on its own, especially paired with slices of creamy avocado. 😉

Bite-sized, blueberry, and brie: Were four words ever better or more delicious together? Enter this easy, perfect-for-spring appetizer. With golden brown pastry (thank you, crescent dough!), gooey cheese, jammy blueberries, and crunchy almonds, these bites are perfect for an impromptu gathering or to kick off a bridal shower.

Like our sheet-pan Italian subs, these are full of your favorite sandwich fillings, this time layered between sweet, golden sheets of crescent roll dough. These savory squares are the perfect app to feed a hungry crowd at a bridal shower, to serve for an on-the-go dinner, or eat as a midday snack.

We love a cold, refreshing margarita to cool off in the summer months, but that doesn't stop us from enjoying these classic drinks year round. For this recipe, we wanted to make a marg worthy of toasting any occasion, so we added Champagne to our classic margarita for a festive, bubbly touch perfect for any bridal shower.

We're big fans of classic bruschetta, but when we're craving a sweet twist on the classic summer appetizer, we turn to this strawberry-balsamic version. Baguette slices are toasted in the oven until nice and crispy before being topped with a ricotta spread, sweet strawberries, basil, and a balsamic glaze. The result is a sweet-tangy bite that works just as well as a starter as a post-dinner treat.

Get the Strawberry Balsamic Bruschetta recipe.

Fresh tortellini make these the hearty bite-size appetizer of our dreams. Feel free to swap in and out your favorite ingredients (or have guests build their own from a topping bar!).

Get the Antipasto Bites recipe.

Pasta salad is the ultimate side dish blank canvas. You get to pick the noodle shape, mix-ins, and dressing, so it’s not surprising that we have over 50 different recipes for it. This time around, pasta salad gets a Mediterranean twist, showcasing some of my favorite flavors from that corner of the globe. And the best part—although pasta salad is usually thought of as a side, the added protein from the chickpeas will make this easy to turn into a main.

Get the Mediterranean Pasta Salad recipe.

Spritzes are delicious year-round and should be for everyone! This easy-to-make, booze-free cocktail hits all the marks. It’s tart, herby, slightly sweet, a little smokey, and definitely an adult mocktail that isn’t too heavy on the fruit juice or sweetener.

Get the Grapefruit-Rosemary Mocktail Spritz recipe.

Whether or not you love asparagus, you’re going to swoon over these little bundles wrapped in puff pastry and filled with Alfredo sauce. They're a great anytime app, but the pop of green is particularly lovely for a springy shower.

Get the Asparagus Alfredo Bundles recipe.

Bruschetta, be warned: BLAT toasts have arrived. Topped with avocado, romaine, sliced tomato, and crispy bacon, these mini toasts pack big BLT flavor in a few small bites. Did we mention the bread is toasted in bacon fat?

Get the BLAT Toasts recipe.

Deviled eggs bring the party to any event, but especially an spring celebration. While they are fairly simple to make, there are a few ways you can go wrong when making this staple party appetizer. If you’re looking for a foolproof method to hard boiling and filling your deviled eggs, our best recipe should be your new go-to.

We’ll say it—brown sugar cinnamon is THE superior Pop-Tart flavor. Whether you eat them straight out of the package or pop them in the toaster, the combo of caramel brown sugar combined with cozy cinnamon almost can’t be beat. The only thing better? Perfecting that flavor at home in the form of these blondies. These blondies are not only much easier and quicker to make than the crust of a Pop-Tart, but you also get the perfect chewiness of everyone’s favorite dessert bar.

Get the Brown Sugar Pop-Tart Blondies recipe.

If you’re a fan of our cranberry whipped feta recipe, this is the springy appetizer for you. Fresh feta is combined with mascarpone, whipped until super-smooth, then topped with balsamic-roasted strawberries and fresh basil. The result is a creamy, sweet, tangy dip everyone at your shower will find completely irresistible.
