easy Finger foods/Appetizers

[The_Kinzzy]

My friend is having a baby shower and we are trying to think of some easy finger food/Appetizers for the party. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, Thanks

Meatballs, finger sandwiches, ham/cheese rolls.Fruit/ cheese tray. Popcorn chicken platters. Walmart makes all kinds trays if you don't like doing those yourself. I love shower foods. lol

I take some virginia or honey ham sliced medium, I take some cream cheese and spread thinly over the ham laid flat, and spinkle finely chopped green onion on it, and roll it up. I like mine not cut, but its pretty that way and serve with tooth picks.

Tortilla rollups with different meats on it. fresh lettuce, and thinly sliced tomato.

sausage balls are great, and very easy to make

1 lb of hot sausage, (the cheaper and greasier the better)
1 cup of bisquick
1 cup of shredded cheese (just buy one of those packs)

Mix all together, cook in a 350 oven for about 15 min or until they brown good. Make them about the size of large marbles, the bisquick will make them rise while cooking. Everyone loves these.

Take regular bread, cut the crusts off, and spread on some mayo. Slice cucumber about half the thickness of the bread. Cut the bread into quarters and top with a piece of sliced cucumber. Sprinkle with dill weed and season salt. It's wonderful.

I make a veggie pizza as well, same concept, put use crescent rolls for the crust. After it cools top with a cream cheese, hidden valley ranch powdered dressing mixed with a little mayo, mixture, and top with broccoli, carrots, cauliflower, onions, green peppers, radishes. Any of your liking.. And sprinkle with shredded cheese. Its soo good. And very pretty.

Oh it is so good and easy lol. I brought this to a few parties this summer and everyone loved it!

My family loves the fruit pizza too....but we use cream cheese, cool whip and a 3oz. package of flavored Jello.. usually Strawberry. Good stuff!

[Anniston]

Fun thread! I have new, fun ideas too!

[Faithfully]

A simple one I make is:
Take a container of Cool whip, and mix it with one container of your favorite yogurt.
Use a a dip for pound cake bites, and fruit, its yummy.

Pinwheels:flour tortillas,cream cheese(can mix with a package of ranch seasoning),ham,turkey or any kind of meat that you would like to use,cheese slices of any kind.
Spread cream cheese on tortillas.Place meat slices all over to cover the tortilla.Place cheese slices on top.Roll up and cut.Very easy and very good.

Take a hawaiian bread bowl and pull the middle out into pieces.Arrange the pieces all around the outside of the bread bowl.You will probably need more hawaiian bread pieces though.Dice up some cucumbers and add ranch dressing to this.Then pour the ranch and cucumbers inside the bread bowl.Use the bread pieces for dipping.This is so good.My family loves this

Velveeta,small box of spinach and one can of green chilies and diced tomatoes(mild).Cut up the velveeta into cubes and melt.Add the spinach,chilies and diced tomatoes.Serve with any kind of chips.

Since someone mentioned Deviled Eggs, I would like to offer my spin on them. I make chicken salad and stuff the eggs with that instead of the yolk filling. Those ham roll ups sound tasty, in fact it all sounds good and giving the munchies bad, makes me want to go in the kitchen and cook. Have fun at the shower.
