Can anyone suggest any healthy party nibbles? Stuff I can prepare at home.?!
I have already thought of crudites and dips (hummus).
Answers: Having a small very casual party/gathering, have some naughty food and want to balance things out a bit lolol

Stuffed Mushrooms Caps. Maybe not 100% healthy, but you can make them a little better. I like to use some cream cheese (low fat/fat free), spinach, garlic, & the stems from the caps. Bake until cheese is melted/golden @ 375.
For the hummus dip I usually get some wheat tortillas & cut them into small triangles (using a pizza cutter), spray w/ some olive oil cooking spray & add sea salt or garlic or rosemary or whatever you like & bake till crisp.
Have fun!!
fruit (dried or fresh)?
Orange slices, strawberries, chex mix...
Flapjacks
Oat flakes 8 ounces (8 oz) 225 grams
Demerara sugar (brown, rough sugar) 6 ounces (6 oz) 175 grams
Butter 6 ounces (6 oz) 175 grams
Salt A pinch
then add choc chips or dried cranberries
Diced dried fruit. carrot sticks, nuts, crispy potato skins, licorice sticks, Bombay mix, rice crackers,. Look in a good health food shop. There are plenty to choose from.
In my opinion you should prefer fresh fruits, such as straw berry, oranges, banana and mangoe. This will add to your healthy party nibbles. Good Luck.
Use a melon ball scoop and make a fruit "salad" of various types of melons - cantaloupes, watermelon, honeydew, etc...
Dip strawberries in melted chocolate (remember to refrigerate!)
carrot sticks, and a big fruit platter with pineapple, strawberry orange apple mandarin and any fruit, or depending on the age turn it into a fruit punch (non alcoholic) and a sandwhich platter
Fruit Tray
Veggie Tray
Finger sandwiches
Mini muffins
just like everyone else kinda suggested, i would do a fruit salad.
but to change it up a bit maybe use some different fruits like mango, starfruit(this makes the dish look fancy, IMHO) some cherries, pomegrante...
