When it comes to holiday entertaining, a little cheese (or a lot) is a non-negotiable, and these three easy appetizer recipes from Birmingham caterer Table & Thyme are guaranteed to become fast favorites among your guests. From spicy baked feta to bacon-and-date-topped goat cheese dip, each one offers elevated flavors with minimal fuss.

4-Ingredient Spicy Honey Baked Feta Dip

If you don’t have chili crisp stocked in your kitchen, you’re behind the curve — it’s a flavor-packed powerhouse ingredient that takes a simple block of feta to new levels. A drizzle of honey adds a sweet finish, and buttery Ritz crackers are the perfect vessel. Get the full recipe HERE.

(You can easily make your own chili crisp or snag a jar on Amazon!)

French Quarter Dip

This New Orleans-inspired app starts with a layer of garlicky cream cheese. We could stop there and have one heck of a dip, but it’s layered with a savory-sweet blend of chopped pecans, brown sugar, mustard, Worcestershire, and a hint of cayenne. Get the full recipe HERE.

Baked Goat Cheese with Bacon and Dates

Goat cheese, cream cheese, crispy bacon crumbles, chopped dates, and hot honey — all layered into a cast iron skillet and baked just long enough to soften the cheese and meld the flavors. Serve this straight from the skillet with your favorite crackers! Get the full recipe HERE.
