One of my top party appetizers to serve!
If you’ve ever found yourself aimlessly wandering through the frozen food aisle, you’ve probably stumbled upon the holy grail of snack food:
Mozzarella Sticks. These gooey, cheesy, and utterly satisfying little sticks of joy are a favorite at parties, a staple at diners, and an essential experience for cheese lovers everywhere.
The exact origin of mozzarella sticks is a bit fuzzy, much like the center of a perfectly melted stick, but they seem to have Italian-American roots, dating back to the fusion culture of the 1970s.
You might want to whip up a batch because let’s face it, whether it’s game day or any day, mozzarella sticks are a crowd-pleaser that always hit that comfort-food spot.
These beauties are seriously best friends with a good marinara sauce, so definitely have some on hand for dipping! If you’re feeling adventurous, other great accompaniments include a creamy ranch dressing, sweet and smoky barbecue sauce, or even a tangy honey mustard.
For a complete snack platter, pair them alongside some fresh vegetable sticks with dip, fruit skewers, or a crisp salad if you want to pretend we’re keeping things balanced here.
