Share Finger Foods

Posted: Nov 14, 2015

Holidays are coming. Here are some of my favorite, easy-to-make finger foods. No utensils needed by the "eatee," LOL. Probably can even get away with just a cocktail napkin instead of a plate Roll-ups: Get plain or flavored soft tortillas. Spread a little mustard on it, then place a piece of ham (or turkey), lettuce and cheese--I use Swiss or Provolone--and roll up and cut into pinwheels. I put the lettuce in between the cold cuts and the cheese. It makes them less slippery and messy. These are not filling, and they are relatively low cal---no mayo, unless you wish to. FYI: You can make chicken salad or tuna salad as well and use that instead. Pepperoni and cheese "sticks." Wrap a piece of pepperoni around a piece of sharp cheese (Asiago works here). Stick a large decorative toothpick on it to hold it together. Use your imagination for other combos. Okay, let's hear other ideas. We're trying to stay away from anything that needs to be cooked/heated, because your oven, stove-top and microwave will likely be "busy," and we don't want any baking dishes pots or pans to wash for the appys. We also want to stay away from anything terribly messy. ;
