5 Ideas for Great Baby Shower Food

Are you planning on having a baby shower?  Have you given any thought as to the food served at the baby?  It is quite possible to prepare a quick meal that guests will enjoy the look and taste of.

There are five relatively easy items that you could include in your party spread.  These include chicken wings, pizza sandwich fingers, tuna on Ritz, beef stew with a French loaf or salad.

Chicken Wings

Simply marinade some chicken wings in a large bowl overnight.  This could be marinade that you purchase at the supermarket or that you make from an old family recipe.  Once you have this all mixed together, simply seal the bowl and put it into the refrigerator overnight so that the marinade seeps in.  You can then either bake or grill the wings for a wonderfully simple baby shower food.

Pizza Sandwich Fingers

In order to make this baby shower food you will need to take a few loaves of bread and cut each slice into 4 strips.  You will then want to put coarsely chopped, bite sized pieces of salami, capsicum, button mushrooms and tomatoes on each strip before sprinkling cheddar and mozzarella cheese over the top.  Then all you have to do is simply grill this baby shower food in a toaster oven.

Tuna on Ritz

This is probably one of the easiest baby shower foods to prepare.  All you need is a box of Ritz crackers.  You will then mix a can of tuna with a can of cream of mushroom soup before spooning half a teaspoon of this mixture onto each cracker.

Beef Stew and French Loaves

If you are looking for a filling baby shower food, then this is what you want to make.  Here you will want to make a stir fry out of 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 1 chopped onion, 3 minced cloves of garlic, 1 kg of beef cubes, 3 large ripe tomatoes, 3 large diced potatoes, 3 large diced carrots, 2 stalks of celery and a box of button mushrooms.  You should also throw in a handful of oregano leaves, a sprinkle of crushed black pepper and a pinch of salt.  Once this is done, simply fill the pot with boiling water and allow it to simmer for 3 hours in order to draw out the flavor.  This should be served with warm bread.

Salad

Here is another easy baby shower food to serve.  All you need to do is chop up 1 large head of lettuce, 1 bunch of baby spinach, 3 large ripe tomatoes, button mushrooms, chick peas and your favorite veggies before chilling it.  Of course, you will want to offer a few choices of salad dressing.
