What makes a good appetizer?
Working in Napa Valley as a professional chef over the past 6 years, I have created & enjoyed my fair share of appetizers, amuse bouche, small bites, hors d’oeuvres, etc!
In my opinion, they are one of my favorite parts of a meal, where chefs can be super creative, playing around with various textures and fun flavors condensed all in one cute bite {or two}!

As a chef, I love working with & sharing food in any capacity, including tools that help you create and share memories of your own in your own home kitchen!
I have self-published Holidalé Like a Chef to share my love of vibrant foods, such as these fun & easy appetizer ideas, AND to help you experience stress-free magic as well on throughout the year with meal planning worksheets, chef curated recipes, vision board templates, and a free guide to money saving hacks.
The celebratory recipes included in my {new} cookbook are inspired by my favorite flavor combinations and childhood memories as well as my current Napa Valley influences.
