Answer 1

HERE ARE SOME RECIPES I HAVE USED FOR PARTYS AND HAD GREAT SUCCESS.

TOMATO AND MOZZARELLA BITES

INGREDIENTS:
20 grape or cherry tomatoes, halved
20 fresh basil leaves
20 small balls fresh mozzarella cheese (often labeled bocconcini)
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
20 toothpicks

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DIRECTIONS:
Using a toothpick, spear a half of a tomato, a piece of basil, a mozzarella ball, and another half of a tomato. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Place on a serving dish and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Mix the vinegar and oil together in a small bowl to serve as a dipping sauce.


BLOODY MARY BITES

INGREDIENTS:
1 pint cherry tomatoes
2 tablespoons hot pepper sauce (e.g. Tabasco™)
1 cup pepper flavored vodka
2 tablespoons lemon pepper
2 tablespoons celery salt

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DIRECTIONS:
Remove the stems from the tomatoes, and place them in a shallow bowl. Pour vodka over them so that they are covered. Stir in the hot pepper sauce. Cover, and refrigerate overnight.
To serve, mix together the lemon pepper and celery salt in a small dish. Serve tomatoes floating in vodka. Provide toothpicks so that your guests may pick up the tomatoes and dip them in the seasoning before eating.


ZUCCHINI APPETIZER

3 cups sliced zucchini
1 cup all-purpose baking mix
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 teaspoon salt

1 clove garlic, minced

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
In a large bowl, mix zucchini, all-purpose baking mix, onion, salt, eggs, Cheddar cheese, vegetable oil and garlic.
Spread zucchini mixture into the prepared baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven 25 minutes, or until bubbly and lightly browned. Cut into bite-sized pieces to serve.

Spread the cream cheese blend onto slices of French bread. Top with a cucumber slice, and sprinkle with dill. You can make as many or few as you like. the cream cheese mixture keeps for about a week in the refrigerator so you can make them over and over again!

Answer 3

Hors d'ovres. Canapes. Appetizers. No big thing.

How about a Japanese thing called "rumaki". It's chicken liver, water chestnuts, bacon and teryaki sauce.

Take a slice of water chestnut, put a piece of chicken liver on it, wrap a slice of bacon around it and pit a toothpick through it to hold it together. Place them in a shallow baking dish and when you get it filled, pour teryaki sauce over all of it. Sit the baking dish in the refrigerator over night so the rumaki can maranade. Then put them on a cookie sheet, place in a 375 degree oven for about 10 minutes and pull them out. There you have it!

Or another favorite is Mexican queso (cheese dip). Take Velveeta cheese and Rotel tomatoes (with chiles in it). Melt the cheese in the microwave and add the Rotel tomatoes to the consistency you want. Then serve with tortilla chips.

Hope this helps.

Answer 4

You absolutely cannot go wrong with chicken wings. Put them in a crock-pot with some basic barbeque sauce, beer, and a bottle of Frank's Red Hot. The proportions don't really matter, just make sure the sauce covers the wings. Start the cooking in the morning, add beer as needed to counteract boil off, by game time, good to go. You could also do meatballs like this. Use Armour original meatballs. Sloppy Joe meat is also good with tortilla chips and easy. Have some beers. Everything tastes good then!

Answer 5

Lamb riblets.

These little riblets come pre-cut in 2 or 3 inch lengths and are packaged by the dozen. Divide the backs into idividual ribs, place on a baking sheet and bake at 375 for about 20 minutes.
Glaze the ribs before baking with either:

The liquid mint sauce (not the jelly) or
melted garlic butter, salt and pepper

Garnish a platter with mint leaves and toss the ribs onto the platter of leaves.

For dipping sauces try mint jelly or a mustard sauce, or even a sweet and sour sauce.

Lamb riblets are very inexpensive, super tasty, and and fast.
