FINGER SANDWICHES

For my daughter’s birthday last year, she had a tea for two party! I served finger sandwiches with pimento cheese, peanut butter and jelly, and chicken salad. You can always make them even simpler with just pb&j and ham/turkey and cheese.

TORTILLA ROLL-UPS

A little bigger than a pinwheel, these tortilla roll ups are made with ham, cream cheese, and topped with a pretzel. A roll-up is great if you’re feeding lots of people and it’s easy to switch up meats and cheeses.
