Answers:
A meat and cheese tray is nice
A veggie tray
Cheeseball and crackers
Summer Sausage
Cookies and Candies
Punch
Pigs in a blanket, BBq or swedish meatballs, hot wings, crackers , cheeses, Chips withe salsa or dip. tuna w/crackers or tuna inside pasta shells. Pin wheels (ham w/ cream cheese rolled up then sliced to look like little wheels).
cheese, cracker and salami trays, swedish meatballs or "little smokies" sausages in barbecue sauce, kept warm in a crock pot, perhaps little puff pastries filled with cream cheese / spinach. They sell a lot of this stuff in bulk containers at Sams and Costco. Finger foods.
Serve a nice hot apple and cinnamon cider for a beverage.
Snack crackers with summer sausage & cheese. Chips and dip. Nachos. Pizza.
Lasanga
here is some really fun things
spam on a townhouse cracker and topped off with peanut butter
crean cheese with capers and horseradish
stuffed tomatoes with marinated tuna
potato chips and use tarter sauce as the dip
some of this stuff might sound strang but it all tastes great
You have lots of excellent answers here. I would just add maybe a dark chocolate fondue to dip fresh fruit pieces in. Dark chocolate is good for your heart...as well as the fruit!
I hope you have a wonderful time at your party.
Oh, I also find gingerale a good drink. With all the sweets usually served, it's nice to have something not so sweet to wash it all down with.
I think a brucheta is always great. Also a brie is always popular, there is a recipe with a brie topped with brown sugar and pecans (or another type of nut) and served with slices of bread, apples and grapes.
I would try to do a nice assortment of warm and cold appetizers
....not sure how many people you are expecting but I'll give you a menu that I had a couple of months ago. tuna macaroni salad, fruit and cheese tray, cheese ball with gourmet crackers, bacon wrapped livers, stuffed mushrooms and wings. All of these are very easy to make. I thought this was a good mix because people want the salt when they're drinking and even though these are appetizers, they offer enough sustenance to keep people from getting too drunk. Have fun!!!
