Everyone wants snacks, even without celebration days, right? I’m not a big snacker on a daily basis, but I do like them when I’m at a party, mainly when it takes a little extra time to wait for the host to serve dinner, serving to hold guests off just a little bit.
Here are a few ideas for you to serve to your guests if you’re hosting a party or just having guests over for coffee, tea or mocktails on the day of Eid or into he days that follow. Just click on the photos to get to the recipes.
Easy finger food– pick up this lovely cream dip with Saffron Road‘s lentil crackers and baked lentil chips– they’re very, very good.

Unique snack mix, homemade and SO easy to do! Seriously, e.a.sy. And just a little sweet.

Savory Snack Mix

Not as savory as the one above, but nice and crunchy and you can make it light on the salt if you get the unsalted nuts.

Salmon dips are the best. I will never buy this from a grocery store, ready-made. I’m sure they’re fine, but they just doesn’t sit right with me. Plus, you can make your own in this simple recipe. Seriously simple.

Shrimp Salad, Caribbean Style. This is such a refreshing appetizer and one of my favorites. I think it’s great for all of you who live in nice, warm and tropical weather but those of us in Chicago could also use a nice hefty dose of Vitamin C that’s in here…

There’s plenty more on this site, so please have a browse around. I’d love to know what you decide to make, so please share in the comments below!
