What Appetizer should I bring?

Question

I need to take an appetizer to a church dinner- but I promised my boyfriend that I would take something he would eat (he's really picky- think plain hamburgers, pancakes with no syrup). Any suggestions on what I should make?

Answer 1

pigs in a blanket!

use cocktail weiners and rolled out crescent dough cut into 1 x 4 inch strips. Serve with ketchup and mustard - on the side of course!

Answer 2

Here is a favorite of my family.

Ground beef party ryes

1 loaf party rye
2 lb. ground beef, browned and crumbled
1 t. oregano
1 t. Worcestershire sauce
1 lb. Velveeta cheese

Cook ground beef and drain well, cut up Velveeta into cubes and add, stir until well melted. Add the rest of the ingredients and spread on slices of party rye. When ready to serve, broil 4 inches from heat or until hot and buddly. Watch carefully or they will burn!

I make these ahead of time, freeze on wax paper covered sheets. When frozen I remove to zip loc bags and remove what I need at the time.

Men love these!!! Enjoy!
