Answer 1

Oooooh this is so easy...Cucumber snackers...delicious yet refreshing...get one english cucumber...slice at an angle about 1 inch slices...get any brand of garlic/herb cheese spread in the deli section...they have TONS....and get some prosciutto. (slice it into thin strips)
Simply spread a small amt of cheese onto each cucumber slice.(don't worry about measuring anything...make your life easy)
Then wrap a strip of prosciutto around each slice.
Done!
Looks so fancy...yet they taste so good. You wouldn't BELIEVE the compliments I got on this.
Enjoy!


Also remember....the biggest hit are usually your plain old DEVILED EGGS...they are always the first to go...nothing fancy...just add the mayo & mustard to the egg mixture.
When done filling, sprinkle each one with paprika.

A fresh vegetable tray -- they always go over well and you can have a great variety such as carrots, celery, cucumber broccoli, cauliflower, snow peas, cherry tomatoes, etc... or you could go with a fruit tray... and what is so cool is that a lot of grocery stores or supermarkets have clued into this and now cell fruit or vegetable party trays for not so much money so yo don't have to do all the cutting and cleaning yourself.

The world's easiest no-bake cheesecake recipes....
1 package gelatin unflavoured
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup boiling water
16 ounces cream cheese softened
1 tsp vanilla
prebuilt graham cracker crust
Mix gelatin, sugar and hot water in a bowl stir until dissolved.
Beat cream cheese and vanilla in large bowl until smooth, slowly blend in gelatin mix... when smooth, poor into prepared crust. Put in fridge about 3 hours, then throw on your favorite toppings (I like cherry pie filling) and enjoy.

Look on the back of the eagle brand sweet milk paper... they have a really good really easy recipe too. I have made it several times, but don't have it around to write down for you... this one is no bake as well.

4floz juice

Crush the graham crackers with a rolling pin. Melt the butter in a saucepan, add the crushed graham crackers and stir together well. Turn the mixture into the prepared pie pan and press evenly into the base and sides. Then place in the refrigerator to firm. Drain the mandarins and reserve 4floz of the juice. Now beat together the cream cheese and sugar, add the reserved juice and beat until smooth. Fold in the mandarins. Pour into the firmed biscuit lined pan and spread evenly. Cover and return to the refrigerator to chill. Just before serving sprinkle with chocolate curls, these can be made by using a vegetable peeler to shave curls from a bar of chocolate, and cut the cheesecake into slices.

OR WHAT ABOUT THIS EASY RECIPE?

Eggs and Anchovies
Recipe Ingredients
Eggs
Can of filleted anchovies
Butter
Salt and Pepper for seasoning
Parsley

Preparation and cooking instructions
Begin by hard boiling the eggs then when they have cooled peel them under slowly running cold water, this will remove any small pieces of shell. Carefully slice the eggs in half and remove the yolks.

Then put the egg yolks into a bowl and add some salt and pepper for seasoning and the anchovies then mash everything together using enough butter to make a smooth paste.

Next, so that the eggs will stand, slice a small piece off the bottom of each of the halved eggs. Then carefully fill the eggs with the paste; you may prefer to use a piping bag. Finally, when all the eggs are filled with the paste, garnish with parsley.

Tip: When boiling eggs it’s always a good idea to use a timer, guess work is not recommended, as the eggs may become over cooked, after cooking run cold water from the faucet over the eggs and leave them in the cold water for a few minutes this makes them a lot easier to peel.

Tip: To make mashing easier try chopping the anchovy fillets first.

Answer 6

Another different thing you could try - Pinwheels.

Take a tortilla, spread it with an even layer of cream cheese -all the way to the edge.
Add your favorite deli meat and extra bits. (turkey and bacon go well, or roast beef with just a bit of horseradish sauce, or ham with chopped spring onion)
Roll the whole thing up tightly, like you would a jelly roll.
Roll up in some cling film, and store in the refrigerator for at least a couple hours.
When you're ready to serve them, simply cut off the ends of the roll, then slice into 3/4 - 1 inch slices, and arrange on a plate.

The most natural and healthy diet for humans is an omnivorous diet, and not a plant based diet, or a meat-based diet per se. The Paleo Diet can be very widely varied and omnivorous for the most part, but the most important thing is that it’s unprocessed, and avoids the worst foods that agriculture brought mankind… refined inflammatory vegetable oils, refined grains (some are worse than others), and sugar!

As you can see, the benefits of adopting a Paleo way of eating can be incredible! I’ve been eating 95% Paleo for the last 5-6 years and I’ve never felt better. I have dozens of friends that have adopted a more Paleo way of eating too, and have seen all sorts of health problems disappear, including eliminating acne and other skin problems, digestion problems, improving brain clarity, and of course, losing a lot of body fat!

Answer 8

If you want to eat truly healthy, lose body fat consistently, normalize your blood pressure, cholesterol levels, prevent cancer, and even boost your brain health and energy levels, you may have heard all over the news that the Paleo Diet has been found to be one of the best methods of achieving all of these benefits compared to any other popular "fad" diets out there. Go here https://biturl.im/aU552

The truth is that the Paleo Diet will never be considered a fad because it's just simply the way that humans evolved to eat over approximately 2 million years. And eating in a similar fashion to our ancestors has been proven time and time again to offer amazing health benefits, including prevention of most diseases of civilization such as cancer, heart disease, alzheimers, and other chronic conditions that are mostly caused by poor diet and lifestyle. One of the biggest misunderstandings about the Paleo Diet is that it's a meat-eating diet, or a super low-carb diet. This is not true

Answer 9

Wow. Your usual are unusual to me. I'm in California and I'm guessing you're somewhere else?
We usually trim veggies and make them into sticks and serve them with ranch dressing. Also a variety of crackers and toppings. Fav tops are cheese, salami, pepperoni. Cheap, quick, easy and super popular.
I prefer stuff that can go on a small paper plate, but here the Mexican casseroles and chips and dips are very popular. People layer some of their favorite Mexican foods and put chips on top or next to it for dipping.

Answer 10

Stuffed Pepperoncini

36 pepperoncini
1 pound cream cheese, room temperature
8 ounces crab claw meat, shredded

Cut the stem end off the pepperoncini and carefully scrape out the seeds. Set aside.

Beat the cream cheese in the bowl of a mixer with the paddle attachment. Add the crab and continue to mix. Add the Cajun seasoning, hot sauce, and thyme and mix until blended. Place the mixture into a pastry bag and pipe into the seeded pepperoncini. Dip the cream cheese end of the pepperoncini in the chopped parsley before serving and transfer directly to a serving tray.

Won Ton Snacks

INGREDIENTS:
• 2 pounds ground pork
• 2 stalks celery
• 2 carrots
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1 small onion
• 1 (8 ounce) can water chestnuts
• 1/2 cup prepared Thai peanut sauce
• 1 (14 ounce) package round wonton wrappers


DIRECTIONS:
1. In a food processor, finely chop the celery, carrots, garlic, onion, and water chestnuts. The pieces should be small and fairly uniform, but not liquid.
2. In a large skillet, combine the ground pork and chopped vegetables. Cook over medium heat until the vegetables are soft, and the pork is no longer pink. Increase the heat to high, and let the moisture evaporate, then stir in peanut sauce and cook for 5 more minutes before removing from heat.
3. While the pork mixture is cooking, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Press one wonton wrap into each cup of a mini muffin pan, with the edges flared out to the sides. Place one scoop of the meat mixture into each cup.
4. Bake for about 12 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the outer wrappers are crisp and golden. Allow to cool slightly in the pan before removing to a serving tray.
