No messes, finger foods, doesn't have to be xmas foods but does have to be awesome. Appetizers, cookies, punches, and so forth!

Answer 1

Finger Foods and Appetizers
- Pizza bagels are a hit!
- Mozzerella cheese sticks with Marinara Sauce
- Chicken Tenders served with Ranch and Ketchup
- Pigs in Blankets
- Tomato Soup served in Mugs
- A Veggie Tray with Ranch and Peanutbutter (in case there's celery)
Desserts
- Chocolate Chip Cookies
- Holiday Vanilla Cookies with Red and Green Frosting, usually sold at local grcoery stores.
- Holiday Colored Cupcakes
- A Fruit Tray served along with Vanilla Yogurt Cups as Dipping Sauce, make sure cups are individual so no germs are spread.
Punch
- Original Hawaiin Punch
- Green and/or Blue Kool-Aid (Perferably green because it's Holidayish)
You can put fruit slices or even whole berries in the punch.

Answer 2

If you have a Costco or a Sams Club membership, or a friend that can get you in there, in the frozen section they have tons of appetizer/finger type foods in large quantities and reasonably priced.

Cocktail meatballs or Little Smokies always go over big, footlong sub sandwiches cut into small strips, chicken wings, chili con carne dip in a crockpot with corn chips to dip into it, or a 7 layer Mexican dip with corn chips, Mexican pinwheels http://www.recipezaar.com/11969, you can make herbed or spiced nuts, kebobs (take wood skewers or bigger toothpicks and alternate cubes of sausage, cheese, artichokes, cherry tomatoes, or olives)

Answer 3

fried macaroni and cheese make the mac and cheese from a box day ahead it will set when cold take a ice cream scoop and make into balls dip in tempura ( egg flour and milk should be very thin) then dredge in bread crumbs penko or Japanese bread crumbs work best but plain bread crumbs can work pan fry until golden cookies just go with your favorite chocolate chip recipe easy punch orange juice pineapple juice cranberry juice and apple juice sherbet if you want but not absolutely necessary you would not believe it until u try it but tastes just like store bought fruit punch after u make the punch you might not ever buy high C ever again

Answer 4

The easiest and yummiest thing ever is a block of cream cheese with some red pepper jelly on top. Serve that with crackers. (You can also do half red pepper jelly and half green pepper jelly, but the green isnt as good)

Also, you could have the red/green m&m's.

Everyone loves finger sandwhiches, make them yourself since a tray of them costs an arm and a leg.

Bags of Ruffles with french onion dip or you could have a crock pot with a pound of velveeta cheese and 2 cans of Rotel Dip and have tostitoes with it. That has the possibility of being messy, but 14-19 year olds usually can eat without too big a mess.

And sorry, I don't know of any alcohol free punches, lol.

Answer 5

pizza bagel bites
fruit/veggie platters
crackers (goldfish are always popular)
M&Ms and/or skittles

every christmas, my grandma and i make little mini hamburgers...

you need ground beef, green onions, worchester sauce, seasonings, wonderbread or some kind of white bread, and dijon mustard.

cut the bread into circles using a small circular cookie cutter
mix the ground beef, green onions, worchester sauce, and seasonings of your choice (whatever you normally use if you make your own hamburgers--garlic salt is good)
take pinches of the meat and put it on the circles of bread, pinch and shape it so it fits nicely on the bread.
put it in the oven until the meat is cooked (i can't remember the temp or time, sorry!)
after they are done cooking, put a small dollop of mustard on each hamburger.
