Thanks for the great spread! Made it for the 4th get together. I did jazz up the cream cheese with diced waterchestnuts and chili paste. -
I made this for a couples' dinner night at our house. The other couple was bringing homemade sushi, so I wanted to keep with the Asian theme with what I made. I ended up making some wonderful Thai vegetable coconut soup in the crockpot, and this recipe of the Layered Asian Appetizer. It was really unique in flavor and everyone remarked on how fabulously interesting and addictive it was. I served it with rice crackers which seemed to work perfectly with it. Would make again! -
We all really liked this appetizer. I've made it a couple of times now and both times it's been a big hit. A great combination of flavors and very easy to put together. I normally don't care for sweet & sour sauce, but on this it was great. You can't go wrong serving this at your next party. -
Served this at an Asian dinner and made it "as is". Love it!! Served with Sesame Rice Crackers. Lot of compliments from everyone and I'm looking forward to making it again soon.

Taste of Home and Southern Living are my favorite recipe magazines(I enjoy reading a little bit about the people who submit the recipes). Recipe Zaar is just an incredible site. I've made many new friends since joining. I have tons of cookbooks -- but now when I need a new recipe that I know I can count on, I come here!
