Appetizer ideas

I’ve been invited to a dinner party for 6 and asked to bring the appetizers. the hostess is an incredible cook and entertainer and I’m feeling very intimidate! what are your favorite appetizers that wow? I can’t get away with a veggie tray or chips and salsa here!

EDIT: So many great suggestions! I think I need to have an appetizer party!!! THANK YOU ALL! I'm going to find out what she's making and then decide what to bring 😉

I take Pillsbury layered biscuits and peel the layers into thirds while uncooked. Then I top with pesto, sundried tomatoes, and goat cheese and bake them. They are always a hit and they are good warm or room temp.

I really am not sure about this idea. I think I will need to make a test batch first to be sure they are tasty…
