Easy fingerfood

[TemporaryName123]

Hi all,

Having 7 friends around for my bday so I’m thinking of just popping some plates/bowls of easy food on island and letting everyone mingle and nibble as they please.

I’m thinking:
Homemade Spanish croquettas (made some recently so have these in the freezer, literally just fry and serve)

meatball ablondigas (again, double batches sauce). This will just bake in oven before problem arrive

big green salad

a couple of nice breads

Tapenade (I make a nice black olive one)

Bowl of olives/sundried tomatoes

Small cheese board (a Brie, a blue, a cheddar + a chutney)

Padron peppers if I can get my hands on them (again a quick 1 min flash fry!)

Caprese salad

Is there anything you would add? I’m looking for v easy/low prep (beyond the bits I’ve already inadvertently prepped lol!).

these are simple and delicious.

I don’t consider meatballs or salad finger food?

How about a tortilla too since you have a Spanish-y theme going on? Prawn and chorizo skewers? Melon chunks wrapped in Serrano ham?

Yes you’re right, they aren’t finger food, but was just thinking need a couple of bigger looking things to bulk out as as I have the sauce already in freezer it would be easy to add. Let’s call the whole thing ‘fork food’ 🙈 Tartlets sound amazing, melon and serano ham also a good shout!!

pickled onions or veg
crisp
Hummus
Yogurt with grated cucumber and carrot
olive oil and balsamic vinger
French fries
fruit -grape, mango, melon, watermelon, blueberry, strawberry

I would do a selection of cold meats too- Serrano ham, parma ham, salame etc. goes with your theme, is zero prep other than opening packets and always disappears.

LOVE your menu , right up muy street
