fruit and cheese

rolled up anything inside tortillas sliced up into pinwheels, seems to always be a hit also (pepperoni/cheese, turkey, veggie & feta..etc)

It was like this at the last party I attended and I was very grateful (for my kid). Parents weren't served.

+1 love those!

I also love their pasta salad, the shell-shaped one with olives, feta and tomato. vulgar, right?

I served Jamaican curried chicken with rice and peas at my son's birthday party (along with simpler kiddie foods). All of the parents went crazy for it - and so did most of the kids! They came expecting pizza and juice and got a nice spicy hot meal. Everyone had something great to say about the food.

We order a few boxes of empanadas. They go down very well with the adults and some kids too.

+1. This with the fruit/veggie tray and you're set. Maybe some chips and dip of some sort, too (salsa, guac, hummus).

I parent an ES carnivore. Consider slices of salami, rolled ham, roast beef, and turkey slices, buffalo or teriyaki wings.

Besides the usual pizza/cake for the kids, I'd like to provide stuff that parents would enjoy. Suggestions? We'll probably throw in a fruit/veggie tray, too. This is for a 5-year old birthday, if that makes a difference (probably doesn't)!
