Spinach artichoke cheese dip is also good!.

To enhance your cheese & crackers, get a block of cream cheese and a bottle of raspberry chipolte sauce (you can get the sauce at most stores, I definitely know you can get it at Sam's Club or Costco)!. Pour the sauce over the cream cheese!. It taste amazing!. I usually serve it with club crackers or Ritz!.
Another easy thing to do is a brushetta!. Dice a couple of tomatoes, cucumbers, garlic, red onion!. Mix in a bowl with a little olive oil, balsamic vinagar, salt & pepper to taste!. Let it set in the frig so the flavors and blend!. Take a bagette and cut in to 1/4 inch slices!. Drizzle with olive oil and bake in the over at 350 degrees for about 5 - 7 minutes (until golden brown)!.
Serve together with some fresh graded Asiago or Parmesan cheese!.
This is really nice, quick & easy to make!
Congrats!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Pigs in a Blanket are always a big hit at our get togethers-especially for the guys!.
What I do with mine is smear some bbq sauce on a cresent before rolling it up with a piece of hot dog or sausage!. You could do a few like that and then do a few with no bbq sauce but with cheese instead!.
Sounds fun! Hope this helps
INGREDIENTS:

* 8 slices American cheese
* 1 tube refrigerated crescent rolls
Easy pigs in a blanket
DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees!.
Wrap cheese around each hot dog and then a crescent roll around that!.
Place on a Cookie Sheet!.
Bake in preheated oven until crescent rolls are golden brown
