New Years Appetizer Recipes?

I am having 10 people to my house, but for a change, we are going to just be serving appetizers because every year we buy filet mignon and no one is still hungry by the time we are done with the appetizers. I was wondering what are some good appetizer recipes that are easy and yield a lot?New Years Appetizer Recipes?
Here is a simple recipe for a wonderful and delicious appetizer. I make these for all my parties. I'm actually making this for New Years Eve.





Sausage Stuffed Mushrooms


1 pound ground pork sausage (I chop mine up in the food processor so it's very fine)


2 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened


3-4 (8 ounce) package fresh mushrooms, stems removed





DIRECTIONS


Preheat oven to 350.





Place sausage in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Drain and transfer to a medium bowl.


Blend cream cheese with the sausage. Stuff mushroom caps with the cream cheese and sausage mixture.





Arrange stuffed mushroom caps on a medium baking sheet. (I use a 9x13 cake pan). Bake for 15 minutes and then put under the broiler for 2 minutes to brown.





I add the following to the recipe.





I fry up garlic with my sausage and add onion powder to the mixture.





I also melt some butter and mix it with seasoned bread crumbs and grated parmesan cheese. I then take the mushrooms once filled and dip it into the bread crumbs.





They take some prep time, but they are very delicious.New Years Appetizer Recipes?
