This Italian classic comes in a range of varieties, is easy to make, and is cheap and tasty.

Let's face it, no assortment of snack food at a party is complete without cheese! And for good reason: a chemical in it called casein triggers opioid receptors in the brain, so it's literally addictively good.

Let's not forget about those people who prefer veggie food. Cauliflower wings are a fantastic substitute for chicken wings. They have a nice bite to them, and work very similarly to chicken wings: they go great with blue cheese dip and celery sticks. To switch it up, infuse the batter with mango.
These are fresh and healthy. Since cucumbers are mostly made up of water, they'll keep your guests well hydrated. They're great as a replacement for bread and topped with hummus.

Salmon and cream cheese is a classic combination of flavors. The saltiness of the fish and the smooth creaminess of the cheese blend like coffee and chocolate. Some advice? Buy the party shells from the supermarket and just fill them with Philadelphia cream cheese and sliced salmon from the packet.
Cheesecake is another classic. It's pretty easy to make, too. The only issue may be making them bite-size, so consider that before you start.
Dumplings are a good snack because they're pieces of dough wrapped around a filling. They're versatile!
These tasty babies aren't as simple to make, but are sure to have people longing for more. The pork is slow roasted with BBQ sauce. After that, all you really need is some coleslaw and the buns.
