Party Food Ideas

January 1^st signals the finale of the festive season and leaves us in a ‘party mood’ as we head into the New Year. January is a month where many people are still on holidays and you might find yourself entertaining family and friends more often than usual. Just when you have made your New Year’s resolutions to look after your health, the holiday gatherings and parties can present a bit of an obstacle to successfully meeting your New Year goals. To help stay on track with your better health and well-being goals you might be looking for some easy and healthy food ideas for the social occasions ahead. Have a look in our Recipe Finder for some healthy entertaining avocado recipes, perfect for hosting parties, going to parties or just a simple BBQ with the family.

Think about using some of our great summer fruits, like avocado, mango and lychees to keep the finger food and other party food ideas positive for your health. Avocado based dips like guacamole are always a crowd-pleaser and go well with vegetable sticks instead of the usual corn chips, to make it a super healthy choice. Tomato and Avocado Bruschetta, or Prawn Bites are easy to prepare, and make another healthy finger food option. Avocado and Mango Salsas are easy party foods to prepare and partner well with seafood and barbequed meats - an easy but tasty way to add some nutritional balance to your party food.

With the New Year there is also the next string of family birthdays. If you’re looking for some healthy ideas for kids party food, try some of the party food ideas on the Australian Avocados website.
