The great thing about appetizers is that you can’t really go wrong.

So, whether you serve something salty, spicy, or wonderfully meaty, I’m sure the mom-to-be will be thrilled to chow down with her besties.

Of course, the key to amazing appetizers is convenience – you want something that looks great and is tasty, flavorful, and portable!

And guess what? These 35 baby shower appetizers have you covered.

Let’s get to it!

These are cool, refreshing, and totally adorable. And because there’s no cooking involved, you can whip up three dozen in just 15 minutes. 

Start with a cucumber slice, add smoked salmon and top it with the zesty lemon dill cream cheese.

It’s a creamy, smoky, garden-fresh treat that everyone will enjoy.

Anything with choux pastry makes a great appetizer.

It’s flaky, mild, super tasty, and even better when you stuff it with a herby, cheesy chicken filling.

You can pop the whole thing in your mouth in a single bite. Then, you can pop another, and another, and another, and another…

They’re tiny and light! They can’t be that bad for you, right?!

These miniature treats are colorful and lovely. Luckily, they taste as good as they look.

They take less than an hour to make and are crunchy and delicious.

Each one is like a bite-sized salad but with more crunch. They’re tangy and bright and will look great on your appetizer table.

These tart and tangy crostinis combine some seemingly strange ingredients. Somehow, though, they taste superb together.

Blueberries and lemon juice always pair nicely, of course. But adding thyme, garlic, and goat cheese may seem a bit stranger.

Even so, these are insanely good. They have a rich depth of flavor that’s impossible not to love.

These 10-minute snacks are almost impossibly easy to make, but they taste fantastic.

Each cracker features robust, herby cream cheese and a chunk of fresh cucumber.

They’re fresh, light, and won’t fill you up before the main dish.

Plus, you can’t beat them for simplicity. So if you need a flavorful appetizer in a hurry, these are the way to go.

These crispy cheese straws are flaky, herby, and awesome. Oh, and you can make them with fewer than ten ingredients!

They taste so much better than their store-bought cousins and have a terrific texture.

Super fun and easy to make, they’re always a big hit with the kids.

Tortillas and guacamole are regular appetizer options. However, they aren’t the most convenient ones.

They slow down the food line and aren’t always hygienic. (I’m looking at you, double-dippers!)

The good news is you can solve all those problems with a bag of Tostitos Scoops.

Pre-fill them with guacamole, and they become convenient and easy to eat. They’re not messy at all!

Like chips and guacamole, pizza is messy and not always a practical appetizer. But, of course, that doesn’t stop people from loving pizza. 

So, use this recipe to make single-serve pizza bombs instead of whole slices. They’re cheesy, herby, and feature buttery crescent roll crusts. 

The recipe calls for pepperoni. However, you can leave that out to make it vegetarian-friendly if you prefer.

Or, go ahead and throw in some chicken or sausage. You can’t go wrong!

If you prefer to work with biscuit dough, use this pizza bomb recipe instead.

The appetizers taste essentially the same, but the recipes are somewhat different.

And, of course, you can make your own biscuits if you’re feeling adventurous.

Here’s a great option if you enjoy sweet and savory appetizers.

Each one features a thick, juicy piece of Polish sausage topped with a slice of sweet and tangy pineapple. 

The sticky sauce and crunchy sesame seeds add more rich flavor and a fun texture.

You’ll love these if you’re a ‘pineapple on pizza’ kind of person. Heck, you’ll probably love them even if you aren’t.

These crostinis combine basil’s freshness with the sweetness of peaches and honey.

There’s also dreamy ricotta cheese and a crusty baguette for good measure.

They’re light, sweet, and tangy treats that will wow the crowd.

The old stereotype of pregnant women loving pickles isn’t always accurate.

But just in case, you should probably whip up some of these tangy roll-ups.

They’re like classic ham and cheese pinwheels, except each has a pickle at its center.

The sour saltiness of the dill pickle adds just the right amount of pizzazz.

I’m not sure there’s a stuffed mushroom recipe that I don’t love. They’re the perfect appetizer in every way. 

They’re small and convenient to eat, but they’re also packed with flavor.

As well as cheesy, garlicky, and surprisingly filling, they’re also low-carb and keto-friendly.   

These fancy appetizers almost look too elegant to eat. Don’t let that stop you from making them, though, because everyone will love them.

The crunchy toasted baguette makes a fabulous base, while the cremini mushrooms and Gruyere give them an earthy, somewhat nutty flavor. 

They’re buttery, rich, and take just 20 minutes to make. 

These may not be the most unique option on the list. But, on the other hand, they are a great last-minute appetizer. 

There’s no cooking involved, and you can pull them together in minutes.

Just add some dressing to a cup, then wash and cut your veggies and arrange them on top.  

They’re fresh, tasty, and healthy! 

These small wraps are always a hit, whether you call them roll-ups or pinwheels.

This one is like an Italian sub, featuring pepperoni, salami, cheese, and lots of veggies.

The Italian seasoning in the cream cheese makes them super flavorful, too. 

They’re a simple, refreshing snack perfect for spring and summer baby showers. 

What if I told you that you could serve taco salad as an appetizer?

You’d probably have all kinds of arguments against it, right?

“It’s too messy! It slows down the line! It’s a lot of work!”

None of that is true of these bite-sized taco cups.

Instead, you’ll stick an entire taco salad into a crunchy wonton. They’re beefy, cheesy, and full of flavor. 

You can also add whatever taco toppings you like best. So despite their small size, they’re entirely customizable. 

These fiery appetizers have everything you love about jalapeño poppers. The only difference is that it’s all stuffed into a crispy wonton wrapper. 

They’re spicy, cheesy, garlicky, and thanks to the bacon, they also have a delightfully salty taste.

Basically, they’re a fun new way to whip up a familiar classic. 

Of course, some people would rather have OG jalapeño poppers – which I totally get! After all, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!

Don’t worry; I have a recipe for that, too. Bacon, cheese, garlic…it’s all there.

Plus, it takes only 30 minutes to make them. Win-win.

Is there anything more refreshing than a Caprese salad?

Harness that flavor in a smaller, easier-to-eat package with these salad skewers. 

Each one features fresh basil leaves, mozzarella, and cherry tomatoes. You’ll drizzle it all in a zesty balsamic glaze.

Doing so gives you an invigorating appetizer that everyone will enjoy.

Their garden-fresh flavor and bright colors make them a fast favorite at any event. Plus, you don’t have to do any cooking to make them.

These mini chicken and waffles are more than a mouthful. In fact, you’ll need to assemble them on skewers to keep them from toppling over.

The crunchy fried chicken tastes excellent against the sweetness of the syrupy waffles.

They’re sticky and messy, but they’re also incredibly delectable. 

Sweet-n-savory lil’ smokies are a sure-fire crowd-pleaser at any party. They’re meaty, salty, and loaded with smoky sweetness.

You’ll cook these babies on skewers to keep the bacon in place. Just be sure to leave room between each, so they crisp up on all sides!

As much as I love these snacks, I find them ill-named. For one thing, they don’t use pretzel dough but pizza dough.

So, these are not the soft pretzel bites you’re used to eating. Instead, they’re more like pigs-in-a-blanket.

That said, they’re totally delicious. The salty, buttery crust is undeniably scrumptious with the juicy sausages.

I don’t have many sweet appetizers here, but the few I do have are amazing. And this one is no exception.

It’s a delightful layered kabob treat you’ll want to make again and again.

There are warm, golden-brown biscuits, fresh strawberries, and creamy Cool Whip.

Whether you like strawberry shortcakes or not, you’re sure to enjoy these.

It’s hard to beat coconut shrimp. But once you add pineapple chunks to them, they’re out of this world. 

These appetizers taste like something you’d get at your favorite tropical restaurant. Luckily, you don’t have to fly to Hawaii to enjoy them. 

With fewer than ten ingredients, you can make them yourself at home.

Cheesy, tangy buffalo chicken dip always tastes fantastic, no matter the occasion.

So, whip some up with only a handful of ingredients and five minutes of prep time. 

The slow cooker does all the rest of the work for you!

Serve it with chips, crackers, or even celery stalks! It’s always a crowd-pleaser.

While not the healthiest side dish, mac & cheese is warm and comforting.

Most people fall in love with it during childhood and never grow out of that love. And, to be honest, it’s hard to find a way to improve on such a classic.

Well…other than these incredible fried mac & cheese balls!

These are supremely cheesy and entirely comforting. They’re also crispy on the outside and delightfully creamy on the inside.

You can down the whole thing in just one or two bites – so you’ll want to make extra!

If cooking isn’t your forte, then don’t! No one said tasty appetizers had to be cooked.

Whip up some mini sandwiches instead. Anyone can assemble bread, cheese, and deli meats, right? 

Add some lettuce and mustard, and spread a little cream cheese on the bread. People will love them, and you’ll love how easy they are to make.

Sweet-n-salty, brown sugar-coated bacon wrapped around tender, juicy chicken? Where do I sign up?!

These are phenomenal, and I didn’t even mention all the spices yet!

There’s chili powder, thyme, garlic, and more. It’s a veritable smorgasbord of seasonings! 

These things may be small and straightforward, but they contain a lot of flavor.

Tomato tarts are like teeny-tiny pizzas, only much fresher.

You’ll start with buttery puff pastry dough. To that, you’ll add onions, tomatoes, cheese, parsley, and herbs. 

Each one is fresh, warm, and a little bit addictive. The caramelized onions alone will have you coming back for more.

Coming up with the ideal baby shower appetizer doesn’t have to be a lot of work.

It could be as simple as cutting fruit and sticking it on skewers.

That’s all you’ll do for this one, and I guarantee you that no one will complain.

If you want to add something extra, whip up some homemade fruit dip for serving.

Here’s an even more elaborate option that’s just as simple to pull together. Combine your favorite fruits and veggies with cheeses, crackers, and meats.

It’s still 100% cooking-free and shouldn’t take longer than 10 minutes to prepare.  

And the truly great part about it? It looks like something elaborate and expensive and will impress all your guests.

These are the same silky smooth, tangy deviled eggs you know and love, only there’s an extra bit of oomph thanks to the bacon and garlic.

They’re smoky and insanely good. And you can make two dozen in less than an hour.

These deviled eggs are also delightful, but they have more going on.

You’ll add bacon and roasted garlic to them, too, as well as asparagus and so much more. 

In fact, these might be the most well-seasoned deviled eggs you’ll ever try. They’re also prettier than traditional deviled eggs. (At least, I think so.)

If you’re an avid deviled eggs eater, give them a try. You won’t be disappointed. 

These cool, juicy skewers are sweet, tangy, and fresh. They’re like a sweeter, more refreshing version of the Caprese salad skewers above. 

Fortunately, they’re just as easy to pull together.

Simply arrange the watermelon, feta, and mint leaves on skewers, then drizzle them with balsamic vinegar.  

They’re a decadent, delicious treat.

Easy Baby Shower Appetizer Recipes

Joel Goldberg

Congratulations! You are (or someone you know is) having a baby, and you’ve got to celebrate. Throwing a baby shower can be a lot of work, so we’ve made at least one part of the planning easy on you—the food. The way we see it, the main difference between a regular party and a baby shower is that with all the gift opening and games, you might not want to prepare a full, sit-down meal. That means your appetizer game has to be well thought out; you’re looking for easy, portable options that can still keep everyone satiated. Check out our 50 baby shower appetizer ideas—they might just be the best part of the party!

We at Delish LOVE a theme, and baby showers are truly one of the most fun. In addition to serving classic party appetizers, we also like serving kid-friendly snacks and bite-sized apps. Pick and choose your favorites depending on what kind of party you want—you really can’t go wrong with any of the options on this list.

Having a classier soireé and looking for picture-perfect classic apps? Try our brown butter radish crostini, our brie, asparagus, & prosciutto bundles, our duchess potatoes, or our crab stuffed mushrooms—photos of these are sure to rack up the likes. Don’t care about looks and just want some delicious food? Try our pigs in a (baby) blanket, our pull-apart garlic bread pizza dip, our loaded potato skins, or our sausage balls—these are especially great for chill parties with the whole fam.

Sticking to the pint-size themes? Try our BLT cups, our chicken & waffle sliders, our cheese ball bites, or any of our skewers (best served on mini bamboo picks), like our Greek salad skewers, our antipasto bites, or our melon prosciutto skewers. And don’t stop with apps—check out our favorite mini desserts too. Or invite your guests to eat like a kid again with our cheeseburger cups, our Buffalo chicken celery boats (a spicy step up from ants on a log), our slow-cooker grape jelly meatballs, or our mac & cheese pizza bites. They’ll get your guests in the right mood to play all those silly shower games.

If they need even more inspiration, check out our favorite brunch cocktails too (plus mocktails for the parents-to-be!).

Brown Butter Radish Crostini

As is customary in France, we went the butter and salt route for these crostini, but took it a step further. Cue sweet, caramelized brown butter, whipped into an unctuous cloud: the perfect foil for paper-thin radish rounds. Finished with some flaky sea salt, a sprinkling of thyme, and a hit of fresh lemon juice, and these will be a hit at your baby shower.

Pigs In A Blanket

Tiny hot dogs are perfect for a celebration of a tiny baby.There's something very classic about the crescent roll dough flavor, so we tend to gravitate toward it, but puff pastry or even biscuit dough both should work here too.

Baked Feta & Blueberries

Get the Cheeseburger Cups recipe.

Greek Feta Dip

Loaded with cucumbers, tomatoes, and feta, this dip was inspired by our Greek salad. (Though it's missing the olives, onion, and oregano.) For a smoother, fluffy consistency, we added yogurt and cream cheese. Full disclaimer: This recipe makes a LOT of dip. We've never had a problem demolishing it, but it's easily halved if you're having a smaller baby shower.

Sour Cream & Onion Dip

Meat rolls "Fingers" with lard recipe with photo, step by step cooking on Webspoon.ru

Cooking time: 1 hour 40 min.

Servings: 6 pcs.

Ingredients

Cooking meat rolls “Fingers” with bacon

Every time on the eve of the holiday, especially if guests are planned, I want to surprise them with something very tasty, unusual and original. Many do not dare to experiment and cook some kind of their “crown” dish for hot, which will certainly succeed and will not let you down: dumplings, cabbage rolls, manti. But all these dishes require a lot of time to prepare, and sometimes the presence of assistants. Agree, sticking dumplings even on your family can be difficult. But you still need to chop salads, set the table, and put yourself in order. Therefore, it is desirable to find such a recipe that the dish is both tasty and beautiful, and does not require many hours of standing at the stove, and it can be reheated without loss of taste and deterioration in appearance. nine0005

This is the dish we suggest you try to cook today - Meat Fingers, so that next time you don't have to rack your brains and waste time looking for an original and uncomplicated recipe. To cook Fingers, you may need help to beat the meat well, but you can easily handle everything else yourself. And during the time that your fragrant "Fingers" will slowly languish in the pan, you will have time not only to set the table, but also to take a bath and make a beautiful hairstyle. nine0005

How to cook "Meat Rolls "Fingers"" step by step with photo at home

Step 1 Link

To prepare the fingers, take pork tenderloin, bacon, garlic, vegetable oil, salt and black pepper.

Step 2 Link

Wash the meat and cut into pieces up to 1 cm thick.

Step 3 Link

Then beat the meat well on both sides with a kitchen mallet.

Step 4 Link

Finely chop the salo. Salo can be taken both fresh and salted. nine0005

Step 5 Link

To stuff the fingers, you need to prepare lard, salt, pepper and garlic squeezed through a garlic press.

Step 6 Link

Salt and pepper a piece of minced meat, brush with crushed garlic and put 4-6 pieces of lard on the edge.

Step 7 Link

Then roll everything up.

Step 8 Link

Wrap each meatloaf with a simple thread so that they do not open during frying (it is better to take a light-colored thread - neutral). nine0005

Step 9 Link

Heat 2-3 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a deep frying pan and fry the fingers on all sides until golden brown.

Step 10 Link

Then remove the threads, put the fingers in a saucepan and pour boiled water so that it barely covers the top layer, add salt and pepper to taste.

Step 11 Link

Put the simmer under the lid on a slow fire for 45-60 minutes, the meat rolls should become soft. nine0005

Step by step cooking

Cooking time: 25 min PT25M
  1. Step 1:

    How to make pork meatballs in a pan? Prepare the ingredients. I took a piece of ham, tenderloin, chop, neck, any flesh without veins and small bones are also suitable. Take sour cream of any fat content and mix it with mayonnaise. You can use only mayonnaise or only sour cream, a matter of taste. As are the spices. I took only pepper, you can put your favorite. nine0005

  2. Step 2:

    Rinse the meat, pat dry with paper towels. Cut it into pieces one centimeter thick. Under cling film, beat each piece on both sides. They should be thin, but not transparent, so as not to tear when cooking rolls. The film will protect you and your kitchen from flying splashes.

  3. Step 3:

    Rinse mushrooms under running water to remove dirt and debris. Peel the onion from the husk. Mushrooms and onions cut into small cubes. Fry them in a pan in hot oil until golden brown. Add salt and pepper to taste. Make the fire medium when frying so that the liquid from the mushrooms evaporates. Stir the mushrooms occasionally so they don't burn. nine0005

  4. Step 4:

    Salt and pepper both sides of each minced meat.

  5. Step 5:

    Brush them with a mixture of mayonnaise and sour cream, one tablespoon per roll.

  6. Step 6:

    Spoon each of the sautéed mushrooms and onions onto the rim of the chop and roll them up neatly.

  7. Step 7:

    Fingers can be cooked by frying in oil in a pan or baked in the oven. I will fry them. During frying, they do not unfold, but the view of the roll is lost - the edge turns away a little. You can either tie the rolls with kitchen string or use a toothpick to keep their shape. When serving, remove both the thread and the toothpick. nine0005

  8. Step 8:

    Heat oil in a frying pan. Put rolls on it. Fry them over low heat, swirling from side to side, until cooked through, about 10 minutes. Pasta, potatoes, vegetables, rice are well suited as a side dish. Serve the "fingers" hot, garnished with herbs. Bon appetit!

Pork fingers prepared with various fillings. In everyday life, they are also called "twists". The main thing in cooking is to choose good meat and prepare the filling so that the whole rolls do not seem dry. nine0139

Frozen or dried mushrooms can be used instead of fresh ones (5-6 times less dried ones than fresh ones). Frozen mushrooms can be thawed in any convenient way (for example, in a microwave oven on the appropriate mode - see the instructions for your technique) and drain the liquid. Or, if the amount of liquid in the recipe is not critical, use without defrosting. Dried mushrooms must be washed well, since they are not washed before drying, and then soaked in cold water for at least 2-3 hours. nine0005

Use high smoke point oil for frying! Any oils are useful only until a certain temperature is reached - the smoke point, at which the oil begins to burn and toxic substances are formed in it, including carcinogens.
Unrefined oils, with rare exceptions, have a low smoke point. They have a lot of unfiltered organic particles that quickly start to burn.
Refined oils are more resistant to heat and have a higher smoke point. If you're going to be cooking in the oven, pan, or grill, be sure to use oil with a high smoke point. The most common high smoke point oils are refined sunflower, olive and grape varieties. nine0005
