Answer 3

Go to the grocery store and pick up an appetizer platter. They have ready made cheese/meat platters, cookie platters, and fruit platters. There's a lot of variety during the holidays too. Make it easy on yourself since this is so last minute! Just pick up on the way to the party.

Answer 4

Real simple. .cut up some apples and carrots, go get some caramel dipping sauce. But then again, depends on the party. Go get some Ritz crackers, cheese, and pepperonis, layer and put on a tray. Something different? Get a can of mixed nuts (unsalted if you can find them), melt some butter, add rosemary, thyme, and a pinch of cayenne pepper to the butter, and toss over the nuts. Stir till coated, serve! Hope one on those helps!

Let your crockpot or stove do the work, while you relax and get ready for the party:

2 packages L'il Smokies cocktail franks
1 bottle grape jelly
1 bottle favorite barbecue sauce

Combine all ingredients in a Crockpot; cook on Low until jelly has melted. Stir well and keep warm on Low setting until ready to serve.

Stovetop method: combine all ingredients in a large saucepan; simmer on low heat until jelly has melted. Stir well and keep warm over low heat until ready to serve.
