| We are having some friends over for a game night. When everyone arrives we will be having take-out delivered. I’d like to have something available to munch on while we wait for everyone to arrive and for the food to get here, but I don’t want it to be so heavy people spoil their appetite, nor do I want a ton of leftovers if everyone decides not to snack on whatever is served. |

| What are you getting for takeout? Like I wouldn’t serve a cheeseboard before Thai food |

Either Mexican or Neapolitan pizza, we haven't decided yet. |

| Veggies and dip. |

| If you’re getting Mexican, I would just order before they get there and have guac and salsa ready |

| Veggies and 3 dips, cut up fruit, olives |

Chips and various dips, with some decent Mexican beers such as Bohemia or at least Pacifico or Carta Blanca. No Corona or Modelo obviously, leave the skunk beer alone. |

| I'd do a cheese board with crackers and some salted mixed nuts. |

| One of my friends does Marcona almonds, Castelvetrano olives and cubes of salty cheese like sharp cheddar or a pecorino for starters at every party. Another always has potato chips and tiny pickles. I like both because you won’t fill up on them but they give you something to snack on. A full cheese plate with crudite can turn into a whole meal. |

Vegetables and dip that you can leave out during the meal, especially if pizza or something without a lot of vegetables
Fruit like grapes If serving Mexican, chips and salsa and guac If serving pizza, I just tried a warm hummus-like garbanzo spread at a Neapolitan pizza place that was delicious Sparkling water |

| Margaritas and skip the snacks. (Just don't use Jose Cuervo.... so gross.) |
