easy and delicious spring appetizers {DIY RITZ cracker bar}

I am loving the warmer weather that has been making an appearance lately. It’s a great reminder that spring has officially sprung, which encourages me to turn my mind towards one of my favorite parts of this season–entertaining!

Warmer weather brings out the entertainer in me; I love having friends over to hang out and enjoy the longer days. As always though, I’m looking for easy, fresh and delicious food and appetizer ideas. The simpler I can make it, the more relaxed and easy entertaining is for me (which makes me more likely to want to have people over again!)

While browsing Target the other day, I picked up some RITZ Crackers and some fresh herbs, and created an easy DIY RITZ Cracker bar for my family and guests to snack on.

Putting this DIY RITZ Cracker bar together was so, so simple. I gathered RITZ Crackers, various herbs (such as fresh dill, basil, and parsley), and fun and delicious toppings (I purchased goat cheese, tzatziki sauce, pears, avocado, sweet peppers, fresh mozzarella, tomatoes, cucumbers, sun dried tomatoes, pickled onions, balsamic glaze and honey).

A ceramic muffin tin, and ceramic bowls were perfect for corralling my ingredients…

Then, the fun begins! Grab a RITZ Cracker, and add your favorite toppings. Shown below are some of my creative combinations…

YUM, right? My fresh herbs from Target inspired these clever combinations, and I love how fresh, delicious, and spring-y these cracker bites are.

This combination of a RITZ Cracker, cucumber, tzatziki sauce, and fresh dill was probably my favorite…
