Call me crazy but I honestly have very little need for a turkey at Thanksgiving. Sure it looks great in the center of the table and I do love me some post-Thanksgiving turkey, cranberry and stuffing sandwiches but appetizers and sides are definitely my favorite parts of the holidays.
These little phyllo tarts are the perfect pre dinner appetizer (or anytime snack) for all your holiday meals. Creamy brie pairs perfectly with tart, spiced cranberry sauce (I recommend Preserve International's) on a crispy shell with a single thyme leaf for a little herbaceous pizazz. Plus, when social distancing measures are lifted you can easily double, triple or even quadruple this recipe to feed a crowd. So easy, so delicious and so festive. You'll definitely want to add these to your holiday lineup.
