With New Year’s Eve just a few days away, I wanted to share these simple and easy appetizer ideas with you! I love these ideas because they are perfect for large social gatherings as well a quiet night home with family. Right now hubby and I are in the stage of life where our big New Year’s Eve festivities include putting our 3 year old to bed (at his regular bedtime) and then curling up on the couch and watching the ball drop on TV. The goal is to not fall asleep! I love to have lots of finger foods as well as some bubbly on hand so that our somewhat normal night feels a bit more special. This Cracker Barrel Cheese Tray makes entertaining simple! Just open up the package and your cheese is already sliced and ready to go!
You will find Cracker Barrel Cheese Trays at Walmart in the dairy section. Our Walmart had it below all of the shredded and block cheese.
The Onion Puffs Appetizer recipe is simple. I learned this recipe back when I was in high school from a family friend. I love this recipe because it is so flavorful and yet takes less than five minutes to prepare! This recipe requires canned biscuits (or you can make your biscuits from scratch if you have more time), a stick of butter and half a package of Dried Onion Soup Mix!
Once you separate your biscuits, you will want to cut each biscuit into quarters and then place on a greased cookie sheet (or use non-stick foil like I did).
Then, melt your butter.
Add the onion soup mix to your butter and mix well.
Then, top each quartered biscuit with some of the butter mixture. Don’t worry about being fancy!
Once each biscuit is covered, bake in the oven according to your canned biscuit’s baking instructions.
When you take your tray of Onion Puffs out of the oven, you will have to take an immediate sample. They are SO good!
Serve your Onion Puffs Appetizer with your Cracker Barrel Cheese Tray and fresh fruit for a flavor filled appetizer!

Thanks for coming to Addicted to Saving! Here’s a little bit about me so you can know who’s behind all these posts!
My name is Liza and I began my money-saving journey in the Spring of 2009 as a way to stretch a limited household income. I had lost my job and my hubby was self-employed. I launched Addicted to Saving in November of 2009 and it has grown by leaps and bounds. Since then, my hubby and I have struggled with the ups and downs of two failed adoptions and are now LOVING being parents to our little man Asher who we brought home from Ethiopia in August of 2013. I feel incredibly blessed to be able to help you save money. My goal is that you will have FUN and become empowered to save more and more money each week..
Oh YUM – those biscuits look delicious! Our NYE nights are pretty tame since having kids, and I love them! We recently started to walk to a neighbor’s house for a friendly NYE party but always wander home well before midnight to put the kids to bed and, if we are lucky, we manage to stay awake long enough to see the ball drop. Finger foods like cheese and crackers as well as some bacon wrapped scallops are our little grown up treat while we wait! (client)
