When it comes to entertaining, I love preparing easy appetizers. While the easy appetizers I normally prepare can be pretty simple like veggies and hummus or chips and guacamole, sometimes I like to prepare something a bit more hearty and nutritious.

You can supercharge your easy appetizers by adding nutrient packed veggies like kale. Fortunately my kids love kale, so they’re willing to try anything I make. Just say the words cheese dip (or shrimp) and they’re definitely on board to taste test.

If you’re looking for a new easy appetizer to prepare, give this Shrimp + Kale Four Cheese Dip Recipe a try.
