Pre-Teens/Teens - Best food for a social event?

There will be about 50 kids there. We don't have a huge budget - nothing can be heated - and we don't just want JUNK.





I'm thinking..





microwave popcorn


carrots and ranch


spinich dip


cheese and crackers





What else would you really like to eat if you were hanging out with about 50 other pre-teens/teens.

Pre-Teens/Teens - Best food for a social event?
I think you have a good start. I would include a range of veggies, rather than just carrots. My choices would be celery sticks, broccoli, yellow peppers, red %26amp; green peppers, maybe cherry tomatoes. Lots of color adds interest.





You can also make a fun trail mix with baby pretzels, raisins, chex cereal, peanuts and m%26amp;ms (you can use the holloween colored pack of m %26amp; m's if it's that kind of party.)

do like some form of nacho sauce for chips


granola bars


mini pizzas


***pita bread with hummus***


fruit salads


and instead of having like sandwhiches, try serving lighter main dishes such as chicken salad, egg salad, tuna salad, etc.








hope i helped
Reply:Ugh, no one's going to want nothing but healthy stuff! (Belive me!) How about adding a few sweets? Fruit is good (although skip the melons and catalops, they're hard to find tasty ones.) Make brownies, have chips 'n dips. Meats and stuff like that.
