Deviled eggs. Homemade onion dip with chips is a winner every time even though it isn't fancy (caramelize several chopped onions, I use Vidalia or sweet, when done deglaze pan with onion still in it with balsamic vinegar, then cool. When cool add to sour cream with minced scallions and chives and salt and pepper to taste.) If I need to be fancier, I'll bake some brie with fig jam on top and serve with crostini.

Homemade hummus (super easy to make, add toppings like TJ’s chili crunch to make it more fun) with cut veggies (good if you have anyone GF) and crackers / chips

Corn + avocado dip - fresh cooked corn cut off the cob with diced avo, diced yellow/orange pepper, well seasoned and tossed with dressing of lime juice and EVOO
