Whether you’re putting out a spread for a birthday, a christening or just a random family gettogether, it’s always good to have some nibbles available. Rather than nipping to your local supermarket and buying a packet of crips or a tin of cashew nuts, you can instead make some treats yourself. You’ll make a much better impression, and we’ve got plenty of snack ideas for you to make, including:

• Tortilla chips and dip
• Pizza bites
• Chicken skewers
• Volevants
• Bite size sausage rolls
• Onion Bhajis
• Nachos
• Cheese dippers

These are just a few of our ideas for snacks, and there’s so much you can do. That said, you don’t have to put a huge variety on offer, but having a little bit of homemade grub can make a better impression on your guests, and they’re going to taste a lot better than snacks from a packet!
