Explanation:
It doesn't exactly roll off the tongue. I would use grønsagsappetizer instead, since appetizer is widely used and sounds better here.

hors d'oeuvres med grøntsager


Explanation:
To me, this expression feels more common than 'appetizers' in a Danish context.
'Entrées' would be 'forretter'.
'Antipasti' would be 'antipasti'.
