Finger Foods For A Party Is A Welcome Treat

By Landon Martinez


To warm up guests and prepare them to have a lively banter, appetizer finger foods can be served to give them something to talk about. it says a lot about what is still about to come.Occasions like Thanksgiving and Christmas are events that are awaited and just cannot be missed. Attendance to these parties is partly motivated by the delectable pleasers that await on the table. A good selection of finger foods for a party make great introductions in a get together.

The appetizer or antipasto must ideally be light particularly if many courses await. Recipes that are not so heavy on the stomach are ideal. Bacon-Water Chestnut Wrap is done by frying half bacon slices, wrapped on water chestnuts, then secured with a toothpick. To prepare the sauce, mix some mayonnaise, chili sauce for spice and brown sugar and pour over the wraps for baking at 350o for until bubbly.

Fry in hot cooking oil. Avoid overcooking the calamari so it will not get tough.The filling consists of mixed peanut butter and honey in which some chocolate chips and raisins are folded in. The apples are chilled and sliced and arranged on a platter.Antipasto Kabobs is another dish that puts in several light ingredients together in a short skewer or toothpicks.

Remove one valve of the shell. Add the garlic mixture over the mussel meat and top with grated cheese.Marinate all ingredients in the dressing overnight and skewer before the party except for parsley. To make the cold cuts and tortellini substantial, fold them up.If some guests are expected to be really hungy, it may be good to include some meaty finger foods. Some old favorites are Spicy Buffalo Wings and Chicken Cheese Balls. Buffalo wings are actually chicken wings that are breaded and fried or baked with some sauce.

Bake for about 10-15 minutes. Serve while hot.Raisins, carrots and an herb can make these balls really mouth-watering if added but are really optional. A guacamole works well in both.To welcome guest in your next party think of serving these finger foods for a party as an introduction.
