Easy things are usually what was served most. That and whatever the MOMMY was craving!!
Veggie Trays
Dips and Chips
Finger Sandwhiches
Deviled Eggs
Fruit Salad
Stuffed Mushrooms
Mini Muffins
We have had bbq chicken, sub sandwiches(we cut into 1 inch sandwiches), pizza.
It all depends on what kids of party or theme you are having too. Have fun with it. If you need more help or recipes I can email them to you!

This site has good dip recipes for chips, fruit and veggies! http://www.babyshower101.com/baby_shower...
At my friends, we did sub rings from Walmart-They cut them and provide the condiments.(reasonably priced) My sister made soup and chili and left those in crock-pots and macoroni salad. We also did chips and pretzels. Everyone seemed to enjoy.
Not sure what is planned for my shower. Congratulations on your baby!
First off, congrats on your pregnancy! :) As for the food, fruit and veggie trays are ideal for get togethers..there is something for everyone...crackers with some cheese slices are also an easy,cheap way to feed your guests..some cheese companies sell cheese already sliced in cracker proportains, so no real work is involved :) You could also make a small meat tray with turkey & ham..just buy some lunchmeat that is in a round shape and just roll them and stick them with a toothpick, it helps keep the meat together and is a great way for the guest to pick up the meat as well...have a wonderful shower! :)
My mom made ham and cheese and turkey and cheese sandwhiches ( left condiments for guests to choose), veggie tray, fruit salad, potato salad, tea, coffee, fruit punch, and she ordered a cake for my baby shower.
