TIPS TO SAVE TIME & ENERGY THIS HOLIDAY SEASON

1. Above is my famous slider that I make for every holiday party. When I need to save time, I buy the frozen hamburger patties, cook them and put them on a bun and top them with fresh cheddar cheese. Then I put sticks in them and cut them in fourths.

2. Buying frozen appetizers is a fabulous way to save time. Purchase your favorite items frozen and made amazing fresh sauces so that they taste unforgettable.

3. Frozen seafood like shrimp is always a big hit at any event. I usually thaw out peel & eat shrimp plus make scampi for my guests.

4. Frozen drink mixes are also incredibly easy to serve and make into fruity concoctions that guests will certainly ask for the recipe. Pair them along with some fresh juices so that you have something for everyone.

5. Small quiches are the easiest thing to make along with pretty much anything in phylo dough. All of these things can be made in advance and frozen.
