Christmas is over, are you wiped out? Don't forget that New Year's Eve is coming!
One of my favorite things to do when entertaining is to "dress up" comfort foods. Everyone loves them and they're easy to make. Plus, they're all the rage right now.
Above are my "Tomato Soup Shots". Aren't they fun? I simply put warmed Progresso Tomato & Basil soup in shot glasses, cut up grilled cheese sandwiches into triangles and balanced them on the top! So easy, inexpensive and they always disappear as fast as I can make them! I used bamboo skewers but you can use toothpicks as well. You could change up the soups, use a parmesean crisp or a simple piece of toast, the possibilities are endless!Tip: if you don't have shot glasses, use clean votive candle holders! You can usually find them for 50 cents or less.
Cheers to easy entertaining for the New Year!

this is a great idea and the party store has been selling the plastic shot glasses. I bought some thinking they were so cute but hadn't come up with anything to use them for! Thanks!!
Happy New Year!
Those look great! Is this something you just need to serve right away or do you have a way of keeping them warm?
Hi Elisa,
you do need to serve these right away. What I do is keep a pan of the soup simmering on the stove and a bunch of the sandwiches cut up and warming in the oven. Then, I just fill the glasses, place a sandwich on top and serve. Hope that helps!
Very cute! You always have such creative and adorable ideas!
Hope you are enjoying your holidays ~ Wishing you many blessings in the coming year!

such a unique idea! better make sure everyone is ready drink/eat the shot before it gets cold
Super cute idea. These would be perfect to give to guests after they come in from the cold. Take their coat and hand them one of these, a little something to warm them up!
Lovely idea.
What a way~too~cute idea! Sometimes the presentation is more important than the time spent cooking.... except when you're asked for the recipe {I always hate to get busted}! :-) Love this idea for a way to jazz up a great comforting meal for winter! Happy New Year...
Oh, my! What sublime and easy-to-prepare appetizers for a New Year party! Thank you for sharing.
LOVE this idea Mandy!
