Thanksgiving appetizers




This Thanksgiving I prepared the entire meal. So, I kept my appetizers simple. I made small, open sandwiches with cream cheese and pumpernickel bread. I topped some with smoked salmon, shallots and capers. I topped the others with a soft salami and sliced cornichon. My other appetizer was deviled eggs. This is more of a tradition at my family's holidays. I make them by mixing the yolks with some mayonaisse, mustard, white wine vinegar, salt and pepper and then I sprinkle paprika on top. To drink, we had a homemade mulled wine made with Merlot, a berry juice, spices and oranges. Finally, I bought some olives at the store and my friend brought a cheese and fruit plate. We almost didn't need the turkey dinner!
