This week is Christmas week here at RMK. I have some fun and festive recipes that I will be sharing. It has been fun planning this weeks worth of post. To start off, I have an appetizer for ya. This recipe for Pita Christmas Tree Appetizers comes together in under 30 minutes and looks fun.
For any party you may be having this month, you can have this there. The hardest part of making these is getting the pretzel into the pita. This is one you could even get the kids helping you with. They will have fun helping decorate these edible Christmas trees.
