Finger Food Meal:

Requirements:
Time to do:30 min.
Cost:N/A
Materials:• Anything you can eat with your fingers. (The list below provides some ideas)
Rating:3.3 / 5

Often, meals are the time when most the family is together. Why not make it fun? One night prepare only food that can be eaten without a fork, knife or spoon.

This idea is really popular with children, as they often are told to use their utensils. Depending on your family's likes and dislikes it may be difficult to fit in all 5 food groups. With a little creativity, though, it is possible.

Below is the list of popular finger foods. Of course this list is not comprehensive. A list like that would take 45mins to download.

Any of the following
• Fish Sticks
• Pizza
• Hamburgers
• Bacon
• Bread/Rolls
• Corn on the Cob
• Chips
• Fried Chicken
• Sandwiches
• Berries
• Nuts
• Boiled Eggs
• Tacos
• Cheese and Crackers
• Fresh Fruit and Vegetables
• Corn Bread
• Burritos
• French Fries
• Tater Tots
• Other things of which you can think

In my family, we sometimes use chips as utensils. Thus, even enchiladas can be eaten using this idea. Just grab Corn Chips and use the enchiladas as a dip. It's better than you think!

Be sure to have everyone wash their hands before dinner :)
