4 Top Options for Party Pleasing Snacks
1. Meatballs
Using both beef and pork, meatballs are surprisingly easy to make. All you need to do is ground them up, wrap them in a ball, and leave them to cook for a little while. This can be done on stove top, oin the oven, or even in a crock pot. You can easily freeze and reheat meatballs before a party or the night before. Serve with sauce on the side or mixed in, and add some colorful toothpicks for a party-pleasing option!

3. Sausage Rolls
What’s not to love about sausage rolls? Quick and easy to make, they’ve been a party staple for as long as anyone can remember.

4. Steak & Cheese Quesadilla
Melted cheese, tender beef, and a tortilla wrap- who could pass it up? With a bit of quick prep and cooking time, you’ll have these ready in a heartbeat. One of the best things about a steak and cheese quesadilla is that you can cook them in advance and freeze them until party time. With a simple reheat, you’ll have them ready for the party, and freezing them shouldn’t affect the flavor. Getting these done a few days before the party means you don’t need to run around cooking right beforehand.

Why let the food cause stress when it doesn’t need to be stressful? With some beef jerky, steak and cheese quesadilla, some sausage rolls, and even a few meatballs, you can make sure everyone at the party has something they’ll enjoy!
