So I'm having a party for my son's birthday this coming weekend. I'm looking for some new recipes. I'm doing the typical veggie tray, fruit tray with a cream cheese and marshmellow fluff dip, cheese/cracker/meat cuts tray and chips with a variety of dips (fresh gaucemole, a spicy cooked gaucemole, fresh pico de gallo and a salsa). I was thinking of having the crockpot going with meatballs but not sure if I should make swedish or sweet and sour. I'm also making smores cupcakes and a almond poundcake and chocolate poundcake. Beyond that I'm not sure lol 

how about some jalepeno poppers wrapped in bacon

pigs in a blanket

potato skins

mini grilled cheese sammies

My fav!!! I was just talking about those earlier today to my friend. Been awhile since I've made them. 

Baked Cheese Olives 

stuffed mushrooms 

Mini sandwiches!! Brillant!! I have shaped sandwich cutters too :) 

Cow Blankets!

Mini Crabcakes 

well i am making them for S's bday party. which by the way i need to give you your invite! 

Im trying to not turn on the oven so the stuffed mushrooms may be out even though I love them :) 

sausage balls, ham puffs, and crab dip are my favs 

well the poppers can cook on the grill as well 

oh but they are all a bust if u dont want to turn on the oven lol. oops sorry 

I made spinach artichoke dip and crab dip like two weeks ago 

How old is your son? Younger kids are sometimes picky eaters. Are you looking for kid friendly appetizers or something for the adults?

Kids are picky eaters, you might need to check with their parents to make sure they don't have any food/nut/dairy allergies too if you haven't already. 

Food, Food and more Food.. Thats all you guys know LOL... 

haha 

It's for my son's 4th birthday party. I'm looking to please both the kids and adults with the snacks. I've already double checked for food allergies but that is a great idea seeing that it's not something that crosses your mind at first.

And yes PP seeing that it's a party and I don't want to starve my guests I am thinking about food. Plus "knowing" food is a compliment to me because that means people enjoy my cooking. 

ohh how about mini tacos 

Plus "knowing" food is a compliment to me because that means people enjoy my cooking. 

And that all you do is eat... 

Chicken Fingers

Mini Cheese Quesadillas

build your own pizza
use mini bagels or english muffins for the crust & have the kids put on their own toppings, you can put them in a toaster oven if you have one, so you don't have to turn on your oven.

Here's a cute idea from Kraftfoods.com

The build your own pizza's is a cute idea. That would please both kids and adults :) 

A big hit when you have kids for a party is Finger Jello, course adults like it too. If you need the receipe, pls let me know.
