Any one of these snacks would be a wonderful starter for your picnic or barbecue. They are all simple to assemble and easy to eat. The Australian Busters are one of my all-time favorite snacks. They are a cross between a cracker and a cheese scone that you won't soon forget. Without further ado, here are ten of my favorite ways to begin a party.
Australian Busters
Light and Chunky Clam Dip
Black Bean Hummus with Crispy Corn Chips
Warm Black Bean Dip
Blue Cheese Dip
Marinated Mushrooms
Mexican Beer-Cheese Spread
Herb Cheese Dip
Liptauer Cheese Spread

Wow!! the perfect ten! I can;t actually rank them... I love them all.
I have to agree, 10 is the perfect number and these finger food ideas and recipes are th ebest. Sorry for my absense, Mary.
Lots of great looking ideas to try - but I am checking out that warm bean dip. It looks fabulous on a cold winter's night!
so nice to have a variety of ideas to rely on! Have a great Tuesday xxx
Ciao Mary, how is the computer? You know I never heard of Australian Busters?!?! I suppose that I should know what they are, but they are completely new to me!
Ciao

These all look wonderful, Mary. I'll have s'more of the bean dip, please...
I'm Australian so I had better learn to make those Australian Busters quick sticks!
Love most of them. :)
They are really tempting.Hammous is a common preparation in this part.They also add thahina to it.
Warm black bean dip for me please!
Australian Busters - how intriguing!! I'll definitely have to check them out - although I'll have to admit I've never heard of them down here (maybe that means I'm not a real Aussie?!?!?!)
That first one reminds me of an old family recipe for cheese balls made with cheddar cheesa and baked a cross between a cookie and a scone, yours looks as yummy.
All of these look awesome - especially the warm black bean dip! Hot dips are my favorite kind of appetizer.

Mary I am really enjoying these posts of your favorites. Since I am new to your site, it is helpful to see what you may have posted awhile back. This is an excellent idea and I can't wait to read and try some of these recipes. I am very intrigued by the black bean recipes. Have a wonderful day!

They all look great, but the warm black bean dip is screaming at me:)
I would try each and every one of these. I love dips and snacky finger foods way more than I should!
I like that your non dip items are cheesy!
Between the black bean hummus and the black bean dip, I don't know what I want to try first!
I could prepare all for a dinner party for not cook! Mary, I could graze my way through life - finger foods and small bites are my favorite way to eat. Thanks for prepping such a thorough list of easy ones.

Mary - I've printed out the Australian Busters, the black bean dip, and the Mexican Beer Cheese. As you can see, my heart goes out to cheese ;-) I hope your computer woes are coming to an end!
You are an absolutely talented cook and baker, Mary! I'm so glad you have email subscriptions available now. To think I'll never miss one of your posts again! :) (I'm here today to search for recipes using marmalade, by the way.)
They look really tempting! I would love the warm black bean dip:)
What a great list!!! Black bean dip is calling me.
they all look and sound terrific to me. Have a nice coming weekend!
I've never heard of Australian Busters - and I am Australian! But they sound totally delicious. I am bookmarking the Mexican beer & cheese spread - I think that would make magic grilled cheese!
