Easy appetizer: stuffed endives
Today's Beyond the Peel post is the last in our series of quick, easy and healthy holiday appetizers. I hope that over the course of the past month you have gotten some good ideas on how to make your holiday entertaining not only a little healthier but also a little easier. For some holiday appy ideas, check out our appetizer videos on www.beyondthepeel.net.
Out of all the ideas we’ve shared, I find stuffed endives to be the easiest and most flexible. You can fill endives with just about anything. If you’re at a loss for ideas, I’ll share four of my favorites with you in this video (posted below) that not only take minutes to assemble, but will have your grain free or gluten free guests happy to not be surrounded by crackers, crostinis, and baguette!
Following are links to the appetizers highlighted in the video and a list of all the other fabulous appetizers posts we did leading up until today:

In a large bowl, add the grated beets, diced pear and sliced onion. Add the vinaigrette. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Apple Cider Vinaigrette
2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
2 teaspoons olive oil
2 teaspoons raw honey
Combine the above ingredients until honey is well blended through out. Add the dressing to the salad and toss to coat well.
