Honey Garlic BBQ Meatballs
I know what you are thinking, why meatballs. To be completely honest, these are no ordinary meatballs and they are smothered in this honey garlic BBQ sauce which is to die for. Plus, you will be using a crockpot to make them, and you know what that means? From pot to dish, as you keep them warm, and everyone will definitely go back for seconds. Also means fewer bits and bobs to wash and take out for serving. A win-win situation, always.
Bang Bang Chicken Bites
What is better than crispy chicken? Crispy chicken bites served with spicy mayonnaise, of course! These bang bang chicken bites are oh so yummy, crispy and incredibly irresistible. Don’t trust me? Give this recipe a shot, everyone will love it and no one will moan about it, ever.

As the alcohol flows, and people are jolly good, you definitely want them to eat something that can become an easy-finger food option. So these ham & cheese pinwheels are the perfect nibble to serve to your crowd. Firstly, the ham & cheese combo is a no-brainer, everyone loves it. Secondly, how could you really resist how cute these little wheels look? You couldn’t, I know.
Crab Stuffed Mushroom Caps
Another recipe you won’t be able to resist on the dinner table is this one. Small morsels of crab-stuffed mushroom caps. One will follow the other to your mouth, no remorse, ever.

Everything Bagel Pigs in a blanket
If you have not developed an ever so slightly addiction to Everything Bagel, you have not lived. So this appetizer is ready for a great start as it is. Then add the most English of appetizers, pigs in blankets, and here we have it. The collaboration we all needed. Wrap the cocktail sausage in pastry and sprinkle with the addictive mix of garlic, sesame seeds, poppy seeds and salt. Delicious.

Bacon-Wrapped Jalapeno Poppers
Is it even a party if you don’t serve Jalapeno poppers? These are honestly next level. Jalapeno peppers get sliced in half, filled with the goodness of cream cheese and cheddar, then wrapped in bacon. Because we all know bacon makes everything better, even the jalapeno poppers.
Taco Cups
You know, a self-service taco station sounds incredible, but can you imagine the mess? This is your solution: taco cups. Not only they are easy to put together, but they are also insanely tasty and look adorable. Try and resist these, I dare you. It also helps with keeping the room clean and the floors free from food. Isn’t that a plus?

Creamy Crab Rangoons
I am a strong believer in anything deep-fried. I would deep fry the most random of things, in order to eat them. But there is a whole different way to these creamy crab rangoons, and let me just tell you… The crispy outside and the melt-in-your-mouth middle just make the world a better place. At least while you’re eating these!
Crispy Loaded Potato Skins
This is one of those recipes people would be willing to sell an arm and a leg. And I understand them completely: there is nothing yummier than loaded potato skins, especially when they are this crispy! Make sure you give them centre stage on your table, they deserve it.

Spicy Deviled Eggs
Another staple in the appetizer section of any table, deviled eggs are a must when it comes to recipes for New Year’s Eve. These particular ones pack a punch: spiked with a New Mexico Chimayo Chile powder, they are also sprinkled with some buttery panko crumbs. If this is not irresistible, I don’t know what will be.
Shrimp Ceviche
Are you going to be hosting a classy dinner instead? This quick shrimp ceviche is your way to go. It’s incredibly fast to put together and it’s bound to turn heads. The trio of citrus juices (orange, lemon and lime) will make this dish such a sophisticated take on traditional ceviche. Serve it in a martini glass garnished with iceberg salad and tiny tomatoes for extra chic results.

Spinach Puffs
I know what you are thinking: why Kronk’s spinach puffs? But because they are honestly delicious! Plus you’ll be able to serve a crowd-pleaser if your crowd is also made of kids – which is very much a possibility at this time and age! Plus anything made with pastry is just in my good books, so yeah. A winner.
Salmon Patties
Unlike fresh salmon, the canned salmon everyone seems to despise goes so well in these salmon patties. And let me just tell you, you’ll end up loving them! They pack a good crunch with the vegetables you add to them and will be loved when you offer them at your next get-together! In this case, New Year’s Eve celebrations!

Another crab recipe, but this time make it in dip form! Serve this with some crackers and you are honestly going to see it fly off the table. Your guests will beg you for this recipe, which is also very much adaptable and can be turned vegetarian or vegan in seconds. Nothing better, in my books!

Zucchini Pizza Bites
After all the carbs I could offer you, I am now ready to share a low-carb, healthier version of pizza. And in bite form. These zucchini pizza bites are just brilliant, are going to be ready in 30 minutes and you will just want to eat more and more.
Beef Crostini with Caramelized Onions and Horseradish Aioli
Am I allowed to pick favourites? Because this screams ‘pick me!’ all over it. Not only they do look classy, they are also extremely simple to make and the flavour combination just needs to take a chill pill. Too cool for any party but yours. Also not trying to be mean, but I wouldn’t share these even at the best of times.
Soft Pretzel Bites with Beer Cheese Sauce
These are what dreams are made of, and try to prove me wrong. There is nothing more exciting than party food, and this is at the top of the list without an inch of doubt!

Fried Wontons
Back to the fried food – it’s no party without fried food! These fried wontons are just the perfect combo of crispy outside with a soft and tasty inside: pork, mushrooms and all the nice seasoning makes these wontons the only ones you really need in your life.
Mushroom and Cheese Puff Bites
The fact that puff pastry is so tasty just does not help, correct? You can buy great ready puff pastry at the supermarket to cut on time, and then the filling should be just simple. But tasty. And the mushroom and cheese filling for these puff bites just make it the most amazing one! Irresistible and cute to look at, they will be decorating your party table!
Cranberry Brie Bites
Two of my favourite festive ingredients, Cranberry and Brie. And they work so well together as well! The sweet and tangy combo just makes these incredibly tasty and irresistible, which I have said for a few recipes in this list. But it is true! Try and resist something as good as these and I dare you, right now. Yummy and classy, what more could you want?

These mini party pizzas will be a great hit with adults and kids alike. Who doesn’t like pizza? And when they are this tiny and cute, I am sure no one will be able to say no to them! Go crazy with toppings, or even build a topping station so people can decide what to have and you’ll be their favourite person ever!
Luau Ribs
These Polynesian-inspired pork ribs are just the perfect dish to serve this coming New Year’s Eve. I am sure everyone will love how tasty and different these will be from your average BBQ ribs.
