Raspberry Pistachio Baked Brie

With the holiday season in full swing, it’s nice to have easy appetizers like this one at the ready. The creamy brie, sweet raspberry jam and toasty pistachios make the perfect bite. You can use this same method using apricot jam and chopped roasted almonds – both are delicious served with crostini or crackers. 3. Raspberry Pistachio Baked Brie

Serve this dish on it’s own or with a side of steamed edamame for an added protein boost. 3. Baked Coconut Curry Dumplings
