Perfect Party Recipes: Your Ultimate Guide to Hosting Success

May 24, 2024 By //  by Denise Lahav

Big or small, some of our favorite year-round activities involve parties. Whether you’re celebrating a major milestone like a graduation or retirement, ready to let loose at a bachelorette party or a Saturday night out or simply enjoying a gathering with your besties to celebrate good friends, great food and life, one thing is certain − every party is just a bit better with great party food. Need a little inspiration for your next shindig? Tastefully Simple has you covered for every kind of party.

The Chill Hangout:

Sometimes, a get-together is all about casual conversation, maybe some yard or board games and someone dedicated to the aux cord to kick things off. If you’re in the mood to host something laid-back, our Bayou Bourbon Bacon Dogs paired with Vidalia Onion Coleslaw are perfect. Elevating a simple hotdog grill-out with tasty additions like bacon and our Bayou Bourbon™ Glaze will turn your chill hangout into an unforgettable event.

The Special Occasion:

Life is full of moments calling for a full-scale celebration, and thse special events and significant milestones deserve a memorable menu. When planning such an occasion, it’s crucial to ensure the food matches the importance of the celebration. Our Rustic Herb Cheese Spread is an easy, sophisticated go-to for a party-pleasing appetizer. Another straightforward option for special gatherings is our Grilled Meatballs with Sweet Heat Sauce. These awesome apps can be dressed up or down, and one thing’s for sure: they will disappear by the end of the party.

The Last-Minute Dinner Party:

Are your friends suddenly dropping by for a movie night? Did you forget it was your turn to host the family game get-together? Sometimes the best parties are the least expected. We embrace spur-of-the-moment opportunities with great recipes that require simple ingredients and just a smidge of your time. Simplicity doesn’t mean forgettable. Make the most of your last-minute plans with a DIY Baked Potato Bar. If time is tight, throw our Bayou Bacon Smokies into the slow cooker while you clean or decorate for your last-minute gathering – the ultimate multitasking party preparation!

The Big Bash:

Sometimes the only way to host a party is to go big. Does your family reunion require all hands on deck? Perhaps you’ve planned a bachelorette weekend, bringing together friends and family from all walks of life. Maybe your hosting style is just to go all out. One of the best ways to please a crowd is with plenty of food, which is why our Vidalia Chicken & Veggie Grilled Platter is an excellent choice. Make a few and see how easy it is to appeal to the masses. Potatoes are another great bulk buy for parties, so Rustic Herb Potato Salad is a smart pick when feeding many. If your event is potluck-style, stand out with a dish like our Vidalia Pulled Pork Sandwiches. Grab some rolls and a large multi-cooker, and you’ve got yourself a guest favorite.
