Meatball Marinara Bites
These Meatball Marinara Bites with Mozzarella are a quick and delicious appetizer, perfect for game day or holiday gatherings. Easy to make and served with toothpicks for effortless snacking, they’re guaranteed to be a crowd favorite!
Print Recipe
Ingredients
- 32 oz frozen meatballs
- 1 cup marinara sauce
- 8 oz Mozzarella cheese, freshly shredded
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This helps prevent sticking and makes clean-up a breeze.
- Place the frozen meatballs on the baking sheet and bake according to package instructions. For our Great Value meatballs, we baked them for 15 minutes. Easy-peasy!
- While the meatballs bake, grab your cutting board and chop up the fresh parsley. This will be the finishing touch that adds a pop of color and fresh flavor.
- Once the meatballs are out of the oven, switch your oven to broil. Spoon a little marinara sauce over each meatball. You want just enough to coat the top without drowning them in sauce—balance is key!
- Now for the best part: the mozzarella! Sprinkle the freshly shredded cheese over the marinara-coated meatballs. Don’t be shy here—cheese makes everything better.
- Pop the meatballs back into the oven, this time under the broiler, for about 2 minutes. Keep a close eye on them; you’re aiming for bubbly, golden-brown cheese, not burnt cheese!
- Once the cheese is perfectly melted, take the meatballs out of the oven and top them with your freshly chopped parsley. The green parsley adds a nice contrast to the rich, cheesy bites.
- For easy serving, insert a toothpick into each meatball. These little toothpick handles make them a breeze to grab during the party!

- In a large bowl, mix together the ground chicken, egg, breadcrumbs, Frank’s seasoning, and ranch dressing. Stir it all up until everything is well combined.
- Roll the mixture into meatballs (I usually get about 20) and place them in your prepared dish. Bake for 20 minutes, until they’re golden brown and cooked through.
- Take them out of the oven and coat each meatball in buffalo sauce (get ready for that mouthwatering aroma!). Pop them back in for another 5-10 minutes until the sauce is nice and warm.
- Serve and Enjoy! Grab some extra ranch for dipping, maybe some celery sticks if you’re feeling fancy, and dig in!

Print Recipe
Ingredients
- 22 chunks fresh or canned pineapple (about 1 to 1 ½ inches in size)
- 11 slices of your favorite bacon
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 22 toothpicks
Instructions
- First things first, crank up your oven to 350°F. While it heats up, line a baking sheet with parchment paper to avoid a sticky mess.
- Pour the brown sugar into a bowl.
- Take your bacon strips and cut them in half. You want each piece to be the perfect size to wrap around a chunk of pineapple.
- Grab a piece of pineapple, place it at one end of the bacon strip, and roll it up like a delicious little present. Once it’s snug, roll that baby in the brown sugar, coating it generously.
- Slide a toothpick through the bacon-wrapped pineapple to keep everything in place. You don’t want your bacon unraveling in the oven!
- Keep going with the rest of the bacon and pineapple chunks. It’s a little repetitive, but oh-so worth it.
- If you’ve got some leftover brown sugar (and I bet you will), sprinkle it on top of your bacon-wrapped pineapple before baking.
- Pop your baking sheet in the oven and bake for 30 minutes. The bacon will crisp up while the pineapple stays juicy and sweet.
- Once they’re out of the oven, serve these treats warm for the best flavor. They’re perfect for snacking, appetizers, or even a fun dinner side dish.

Cajun Deviled Eggs with Shrimp
These Cajun Deviled Eggs with Shrimp are spicy deviled eggs made with creamy, seasoned egg yolk filling, juicy Cajun shrimp, and pickled jalapeños for a little kick. It's a great appetizer to serve on a platter.
Print Recipe
Ingredients
- 10 boiled eggs (peeled)
- ½ cup mayonnaise (we used Primal Kitchen avocado oil mayo)
- 1 tablespoon dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon hot sauce (we used Frank’s.)
- 1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning (plus 1 teaspoon for later) (we used Tony’s creole)
- ¼ teaspoon granulated sugar (optional)
- 20 medium shrimp peeled and deveined
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Pickled jalapeño slices (or 1 fresh jalapeño, seeds removed)
- Fresh chives for garnish
- Lemon wedges for garnish
Instructions
- Start by halving your boiled eggs lengthwise. Carefully scoop out the yolks and transfer them to a mixing bowl.
- Break up the yolks with a fork.
- Then add the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, hot sauce, sugar, and 1 teaspoon of the Cajun seasoning.
- Mix until smooth and creamy, then pop it in the fridge to chill for 1-2 hours. This step helps the flavors really meld together.
- Season your shrimp with the remaining tablespoon of Cajun seasoning.
- In a hot skillet (we love using cast iron for this), heat up the olive oil and cook the shrimp for about 2 minutes on each side. You want them to be perfectly cooked but not overdone. Once they’re ready, set them aside to cool.
- Fill a piping bag (or a Ziploc bag with the corner cut) with the yolk mixture. Pipe it into each egg white half, making sure each one has a nice dollop of that flavorful filling.
- Now, for the fun part—top each egg with a shrimp, a slice of jalapeño, and a sprinkle of fresh chives.
- Arrange them on a platter with lemon wedges for an extra burst of freshness. Serve them immediately, or if you're making them ahead, chill for up to 2 hours.
