Just because it’s an Oscars party doesn’t mean you need to serve caviar on a mini crepe! Food sets the tone for a party. Small bites call for a bit of sophistication a whole lot of fun, and not a lot of prep work, which makes for a perfect pairing! Once everyone arrives, you can bring out the ballots and small bites. Create a buffet of easy to grab finger foods so that guests can pick at throughout the evening.

Get your party started with a few of the recipes below:

Pigs In A Blanket

Mini Meatballs

Toasted Baguette With Assorted Toppings

Cheese Plate With All The Fixins’
