Here's some pics from the rest of the party spread. Michael requested mostly appetizers, so my "theme" to tie them all together was red & green.
spinach artichoke dip - green
(slow cooker recipe here - I used low fat alternatives for the cheese,
added paprika & cayenne, and doubled the recipe)
sweet & sour turkey meatballs - red
