Google "pepperoni dip in crock pot". So easy and so good. I served with cut up mini bagels as you need something hearty to pick up this thick dip!

This is my favorite kind of party! Munchies!
- meatballs in a crock pot
- fruit platter (with yogurt dip)
- veggie platter
- cheese platter
- empanadas (google the Real Simple recipe)
- stromboli (we usually order from the local Italian restaurant- much easier than making one)
- chicken tenders or poppers
- sliders
- shrimp tray

You should talk to the person you are throwing the shower for and make sure what she is able to eat. My Dr. said no lunch meat when preg. unless thoroughly heated and eaten while still hot - YUCK!! LOL ~

I would do things like the little meatballs that you can throw in a crockpot, and the little smokies, a 7-layer dip with chips, maybe some fruit skewers, and veggies and dip. I can think of a million more things too, my friends call me the appetizer queen......if you want more, just PM me!

Good Luck ~

Google recipes for crostini - you will likely find a lot of different toppings. I like doing this, because you can largely prepare it all ahead of time, but it is all still very elegant. Slice thinnly a french baguette ahead of time and freeze pieces in a ziploc bag. Make the topping in individual bowls. I do one ( a Betty Crocker recipe I think) with chopped sun dried tomatoes, onion, garlic, and feta. Can store overnight. The day of the event, take the bread out to thaw, and brush with olive oil. Toast in an oven on a cookie sheet, and top each with topping. Pretty quick and easy.
