23 Finger Foods You Should Make for Your Next Party

This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at Texas chapter.

Finger foods are the perfect for BBQs, pregames, tailgates, Superbowl parties, picnics and more. Why? They let you hold your drank in one hand while munching down with the other. Awesome. Try these recipes if you wanna be the star of your party. Or if you’re a child at heart and hate forks and knives (not spoons though, obviously).
