There's a wide variety of options for party food and drinks. When choosing your party foods, consider the theme of the party, who will be in attendance, the time of day and the time of year. The more guests you have, the more choices you'll want to offer. Here are many ideas to help you select food, drinks, dips, desserts and much more for your next party or celebration:
Finger Foods
Christmas Cookie Recipies
What party is complete without some great, and sometimes messy finger food? Great finger foods to have at any party include mini pizzas, mini sausages, cheese chunks, spring rolls or wontons, chips and salsa, chunks of fruit, finger sandwiches, cookies, crackers and mini cheesecakes or quiches.
Appetizers
Appetizers may include buffalo wings, deviled eggs, shrimp cocktail, stuffed mushrooms, nachos, cheese puffs or cheese straws, pinwheels and crab cakes. Sliders are also gaining in popularity, sliders are simply mini versions of hamburgers.
Dips
Dips are always popular at parties. Serve dips with a nice variety of items like carrot sticks, chips, crackers and other vegetables and fruits. Popular dips include 7 layer dip, artichoke dip, hummus, guacamole, salsa, cheese dip, fruit dip, black bean dip and chili cheese dips.
Desserts
No party is complete without some sweets and desserts. Consider popular recipes for brownies, fudge, cookies, cake, pie and a variety of pastries or homemade candies. Great recipes for fudge might include fudge recipes with nuts or liquors. Cookies are also a great recipe idea for parties. There are thousands of cookie recipes in so many varieties that you are sure to find one that fits the theme of your party. However, the most popular cookies are still the standard chocolate chip cookie recipes, and you can't go wrong with those, for ANY party.
Snacks
Other snacks to consider for your partygoers include peanuts, pretzels and party mixes. These are great to have in conversational areas and wherever the drinks are being served.
Drinks
Every party needs some interesting drinks available for the guests to wash down their party foods. Consider punches like sangria, mint julep, mimosa punch, champagne punch or eggnog.
Whatever party food and drink you choose, don't forget to enjoy the party yourself!
