Answer 1

WORLD BEST NACHO POTATO WEDGES

1 package crinkle wedge potatoes
2 ½ cups shredded nacho cheese
½ cup olives and jalapenos, chopped
½ cup red bell peppers, chopped
½ cup green onions, chopped
fresh salsa
sour cream

Cook the potato wedges according to the package directions but take them out 2 minutes early. Top with remaining ingredients except salsa and sour cream. Broil until the cheese is bubbly. Top with the sour cream and salsa. A great super bowl snack!

Melt chocolate chips, peanut butter together in microwave on high power for 1-1 1/2 minutes. Stir after 1 minute. Pour mixture over Rice Chex and mix until coated. Put powdered sugar in large paper bag and add cereal mix. Shake until coated. Place on cookie sheets to dry.

MINI BURGER TREATS

1 env. onion soup mix
1 sm. pkg. Velveeta cheese
1 snack size rye bread

Mix meat, soup mix and cheese together and spread on bread. Bake 15 minutes at 350 degrees.

Answer 2

# hot dogs
# hamburgers
# potato chips
# corn on the cob (boil these prior to party a little then have the boys throw them on the grill for the warmth and grill marks).
# watermelon
# rootbeer floats (don't forget the straws & make them fun)
Have a couple of the guys do the grilling of the hotdogs and burgers.
You can be the rootbeer host or get someone interested to do that and just have bowls of cut up watermelon or make the watermelon shells with different fruits set around and variety of chips sitting around for snacking.
Delish but not super expensive. Everyone will love the rootbeer floats for sure.

Answer 3

Well, when I was 16 (or even now), I would just do little stuff, especially since I really can't cook. If you want a "main" item, do little sandwiches (ham and/or turkey on those little buns/bread). Appetizers are great. (Little weenies in BBQ sauce are one of my favs. Also, a fruit tray with dip, a veggie tray with dip, chips and queso... Stuff like that.) Desserts, too. And don't forget the drinks! Those are just some things I'd think of, at least to guide me.

Answer 4

i have a 16 year old son he loves chicken wings done in soy / garlic bake in the oven for 35mins

meatballs with French onion soup mix in the mince

Frankfurt's rapped in puff pastry is great as well

so easy to do and not much time needed can all be put in the oven at once

Answer 5

Something everybody so far that has tried and likes are sandwiches (we call them roll up sandwiches) You use flour tortillas, alouette cheese, cheese you use for tacos, ham shaved from deli or turkey shaved from deli and if you like lettuce and tomatos.. You spread the cheese spread on the tortilla, put the ham or turkey on (as you would a taco) or both if you like, cheese and lettuce and tomatoe, roll tight, and cut as thick as you like or eat like a burrito... Everybody that has tried these likes them. Serve chips, veggie tray and dip and fruit and fruit dip, and whatever drinks.. Good luck.
