Whether you’ve having a big party or just a few people over for drinks, you need to put something out so everyone can snack as they drink. If you don’t want to do something extravagant but still make something by hand, there are still plenty of recipes to help you out.
Frico
This Italian snack is super easy to make because it only requires one ingredient: cheese! Shred your favorite type of cheese, whether that is Parmesan, Asiago, or whatever you want. Sprinkle the cheese into a nonstick pan on medium-low heat just until they’ve melted and come together again, and you’re ready to snack!
Marinated Olives
This recipe is great because you can take any type of store bought olives and make them something really special. All you have to do is put the olive in a bowl with olive oil and any aromatics you like. Some examples for aromatics are rosemary, orange and lemon peels, and bay leaves, but you can use whatever you enjoy.
Bean Dip
For something a little heavier, in a food processor combine black beans, finely chopped onions and garlic, cumin, chili powder, a pinch of salt, and lime juice. Blitz it and serve with cilantro as a garnish and tortilla chips!
