Question

Party is tommorow and I'm in desperate need of some appetizers!

Answer 1

Go to the grocery store and pick up those fruit/vegatable trays that are already made. You could also serve mini sandwiches, Velveeta/Rotel dip with chips, fondue....

Answer 2

There is a show broadcast on The Food Network called "Semi-Homemade" with Sandra Lee. She has recipes for some really great appetizers that are quick and easy with ingredients that you probably already have or at least can readily get at the grocery store.

If you go to the Food Network site, you can access her show/recipes as well as several others. It is a fantastic site for all things cooking/entertaining related!

Good Luck!

p.s. Look up "tapas" too! They are great trendy appetizers!

for quick and easy apps I like to have a package of phylo dough on hand. Take three sheets and brush each with olive oil and layer them together, cut into 5 equal strips. at the top of each strip put a small spoon of your favorite filling ,take one corner and fold over to the opposite corner making a triangle,fold over the open edge to continue the triangle pattern until you reach the end of the strip. Bake at 400 til the phylo is light brown and flakie.


Fillings;

Diced cooked chicken with chopped mushrooms,ham and jalapeno cheese, mushroom and sundried tomatoes,cooked and drained spinach with feta and onion,artichoke and katamala olives. Or what ever your favorite fillling might be..

(2) 5 lb. bags of FROZEN chicken wing sections
thaw and season the wings with seasoned salt and garlic powder
bake the wings on a lightly oiled and foil lined cookie sheet on 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes (or until done)

Mix a couple bottles of good hot sauce (preferrably Frank's) in a bowl with a stick of margarine or butter, heat it up in the microwave until the butter is melted and the sauce is hot.

Answer 7

Veggies and Dip

1 envelope Hidden Valley Ranch Dip (1 ounce)
16-ounce container fat free (or light) sour cream
Raw veggies: baby carrots, celery sticks, zucchini coins, jicama sticks, cherry tomatoes

Mix the ranch packet with 16 ounces of sour cream. If you have time, refrigerate dip for one hour before serving, to thicken and blend flavors.
Serve with assorted raw veggies.

Another great dip recipe...

8-ounce block of light or 1/3 less-fat cream cheese
2 tablespoons low-fat milk
1/2 cup chili sauce
1 cup fresh or frozen (recently thawed) tiny or small shrimp, drained, rinsed and patted dry very well
4 scallions, chopped
3/4 cup chopped green bell pepper
1 (3 to 4 ounce) can sliced black olives, patted dry
1 cup (4 ounces) grated, part-skim mozzarella cheese, packed (reduced-fat Monterey Jack cheese can also be used)

Mix the cream cheese and milk in a small mixing bowl with mixer until smooth. Spread on a small serving platter or in a 9x5-inch loaf pan in an even layer. Layer the remaining ingredients on top of the cream cheese, in the order that they appear in the ingredient list. Chill at least one hour before serving. Serve with reduced-fat tortilla chips or wheat crackers.

Easy Crock Pot Meatballs

3-5 lbs frozen cooked small meatballs
1 (32 ounce) jar grape jelly
2 (12 ounce) jars chili sauce
1 pinch cayenne pepper (optional)

In a pot combine the grape jelly with the chili sauce; add in the meatballs and simmer for about 45 minutes uncovered or until the sauce has thickened.

Answer 8

Deviled Eggs? They always go over well at parties! Just boil up some eggs really well, then cut them in half, scoop out the yellow part and mix in one part yellow mustard and one part mayonaise. Stir it up, sprinkle in some salt and pepper (and maybe a little bit of chives), spoon the mix back in the eggs and sprinkle with paprika. Place on a serving tray and you are Martha Stewart in everyone's book!
