Football Snacks

[ArtyFartyQueen]

DH is having some friends over tomorrow night and I said I’d do some snacks for them all. It’s so rare that he has friends over so I want to make the effort!

Any ideas of what I should make? I was thinking ribs, nachos and something sweet but would love some other ideas too!

Hmm ribs can be really messy and tricky to eat so I would probably go for something like spicy chicken wings or drumsticks instead and maybe some home-made sausage rolls
Nachos sounds great - and I would also put out extra tortilla chips with plenty of guacamole and salsa and some spicy ketchup (great for dipping the chicken wings/drumsticks) and maybe some crudites (carrots, celery, cucumber)

For your something sweet, how about making a batch of brownies? Or you can buy a few of those packs of brownie squares, mini doughnuts etc

I seem to cater for my OH's or DS's mates a lot. Here are the best recipes:

Breaded mozzarella sticks, garlic bread, onion rings and sausage rolls and also popular.

For sweet, I find that chunks of fridge cake, rocky road or millionaire's shortbread work well. I often do this recipe www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/887648/nutty-chocolate-crunch
