NBR: Finger food ideas

star21gazer · June 2010

Can ya'll help me out? I am having some of my friends over on Saturday night and I need some finger food ideas.

What I know I am making:

chicken salad and croissants

a cheeseball

fruit skewers with dip

funfetti cupcakes

ETA

I think instead I will do:

pesto crostini

veggies (carrots, cauliflower,broccoli,cherry tomatoes) and ranch dip

chicken salad with croissants

citrus and pecan salad

fruit skewers with dip

funfetti cupcakes

Does this sound good? Is it enough? There will be 8 of us.

I know I need a couple of more things but I am blanking. No spinach dip or anything made with spinach because one of the girls is allergic to spinach. Can ya'll give me any ideas? Thanks!

You already have something w/ chicken, but buffalo chicken dip has become one of my party go to items..

www.buffalochickendip.com

I serve it with celery and/or tortilla chips.

Also love a 7 layer mexican dip...lots of recipes online and you can substitute the things you're not fond of...

Other ideas:

sandwhich pinwheels (frozen at Sam's or Costco, check for spinach)

mini quiches (same as above)

something snacky like jazzed up chex mix

olive, pepperoni and cheese tray

Hope this helps!

I like to cut up cucumbers and then use a small scoop and hollow out the middle and fill it with hummus (creating little cucumber cups). Soooo yummy--not to mention easy!
