Mini Cheeseball Bites

These have bacon so of course I love them! Depending on when I’m making these, I sometimes leave out the pecans and just add more bacon since my nephew is allergic to tree nuts. So if you can’t have pecans, they are still SO good without them!

Cucumber and Hummus Bites

These are super easy because all you have to do is slice, stuff and serve! This recipe calls for European style cucumbers (you know the ones that come wrapped in plastic) but when I made this I only had regular cucumbers so I made sure to peel all the skin off since it’s a little thicker than the other kind.
