Finger Foods Are Always Appropriate
Are you having an indoor party? Maybe you’re hosting an outdoor party. Or maybe you are going to plan a graduation BBQ.
Honestly, it doesn’t matter where you’re having the party because finger foods are perfect for all of them! Stuffed peppers are perfect for BBQs and fruit-filled charcuterie boards work better inside.
Scroll through this list of tasty finger foods and think about the theme or location of your party. It’s best not to keep super-sweet food outside (it might attract bees or insects).
Grilled, fried, or baked foods are perfectly fine to serve at a backyard party.
And if you’re going to transport the food to another location for the party, then something like chicken wings might make your life easier.
Honestly, all of the finger foods in this list will fit in with any type of party that you’re hosting in any place.
Tips For Making Finger Food
When you pick out the finger food that you want to make, click through to the recipe. Each one should have specific tips that will help you avoid common mistakes.
Before you get there, I have some tips that are good to know, no matter what you’re making.
Use similar ingredients in multiple recipes. You’ll save a lot of money if you can buy the meat in bulk. Try to pick out recipes with similar ingredients.
Save time by making them ahead. Some recipes are easier to make ahead than others, so read through the recipe before you try this.
Think about how the guests will pick them up. These are finger foods, but how sticky or saucy is the food you’re making? You might need to provide toothpicks and extra napkins.
And I can’t stress this enough – don’t just jump to the recipe card. There is a lot of helpful information in the blog post that might answer any questions you have before you make them.
