You want little toothpick appetizers. Just put American Flag picks on ‘em:

(I’m always looking for appetizers that incorporate fresh veggies and fruit - so many parties are just too heavy on the doughy stuff.)

I don’t have a picture but stuffed jalapenos is a favorite here. Use the biggest ones you can find or grow. Clean well cut in half and remove all seeds. Mix a pound of cooked Jimmy Deans original pork sausage or something similar, 1 package of cream cheese, and 1 cup of parmesan. If you mix these while the cooked sausage is still warm it will mix more easily. Stuff the pepper halves and then wrap each one in a half slice of bacon. Bake at 350 until the bacon looks done. Make twice as many as you think you will need.
