Not only do we have to decide where we will spend New Year's Eve, but also what food we want to celebrate 2022? This is always a fun night so often we have "fun" food as well.

New Year's Eve, for my family, is usually fun food and not a big sit-down dinner. More of a grab-and-go kinda buffet of a few different "finger foods". It's our last "binge" before we go into de-tox mode on January 1st lol

I thought I would list my TOP 5 New Year's Eve "finger" foods and maybe you will put them on your party list also.

5. Chips and Dip

This can be two ways, one would be standard potato chips and onion dip or tortilla style chips with sals and guacamole (my preference).

4. Swedish Meatballs

These are always great for New Year's Eve. Swedish meatballs are a change of pace and simple to set up and serve, just grab some toothpicks, and your ready. Gravy is optional :)

3. Cheese Plate

Simple and delicious. Every party needs cheese and a simple cheese plate with a few varieties and some grapes will make anyone's night. I always make sure I have pepper jack on the list :)

2. Chicken Wings

One of the best "finger foods" chicken wings are a must for really any party, but especially New Year's Eve. I'll take a side of ranch for dipping,  maybe a bit of blue cheese.
