Try these simple White Cheddar Apple Crackers with Honeyed Walnuts for a quick, delicious appetizer that’s great anytime of the year!
Since having our youngest son, over 2 years ago, we refuse to leave the house on Christmas day. We want our kids to be able to just relax and play with all their new toys without having to run around from house to house visiting all of our family members. Instead, we invite everyone to come to our home. I actually like this because it gives me another opportunity to entertain as well!
I don’t make a full meal since people tend to come and go at all different times of the day and night. Instead, I put our plenty of appetizers, finger foods, and snacks. We always have a fruit tray, vegetable tray, and plenty of cheese and crackers. While everyone loves cheese and crackers, this year I decided to get a little more creative. I’ll be making White Cheddar Apple Crackers with Honeyed Walnuts using my favorite Heluva Good!® Cheese blocks, apple slices, walnuts, and honey. They are a great recipe for anytime of the year, but especially during the holiday season.
Heluva Good! Cheese blocks include Colby Jack, Pepper Jack, Muenster, Monterey Jack, and several Cheddar varieties. They are made with milk, an excellent source of calcium, and a good source of protein. They don’t contain trans fats and are gluten free, as well! While my favorite variety for this recipe is the Special Reserve Extra Sharp Cheddar Cheese, they are all mouthwatering delicious! I buy mine at Walmart during my weekly shopping trips. They always have a great selection!
Make sure you check out the Heluva Good! Cheese blocsk offer on Ibotta before you shop at Walmart! There is no expiration date, but there are limited quantities available so be sure to claim yours while you can!
