You’ll have your guests fighting over the perfect, crispy edges or sneaking out the best pieces for leftovers – but one thing is for sure, everyone will happily be a little ‘stuffed.’

The drinks are chilling, the table is set, and the perfect playlist has been selected. As guests start to arrive, kick off the Thanksgiving festivities with a delicious array of appetizers that can easily be made ahead of time.
