Apparently making deviled eggs for a Thanksgiving appetizer is a thing? I absolutely love deviled eggs and so does the rest of my family, but it never occurred to me to put them out for Thanksgiving. But hey, I broke tradition four years ago by ditching the turkey for a spiral ham and have never looked back.
So, I think deviled eggs will be making an appearance next year…along with these Brie and Jam Fillo Bites. I tested them out a few weeks ago and they are fantastic! But I only hosted 10 this year, as opposed to my usual 20, so a few dishes got cut. I mean, I think four appetizers was plenty!
These would also make a perfect Christmas appetizer. I’m going to suggest them to my sister. That way I only have to wait another few weeks to enjoy them again.
They’re so simple and pretty. The delicate pomegranate seeds make them really festive!

Wow super yummy.
These were incredibly easy and delicious.
I never do appetizers for Thanksgiving but will definitely take a look at yours for christmas when we host Steve’s family again this year! Also: deviled eggs, dude! Steve won’t let a holiday go by without them! Major part of his childhood. I’ve learned to make them well – pickle juice is a necessity in the filling. ;)
