So I'm having my baby shower at the end of September and im wondering what food should I serve? Nothing too expensive but hamburgers and hot dogs seems too plain.. Any suggestions?

Walmart has really good subs that u request at the deli that are 6 feet long. Theyre $25, and i believe serves like 20 ppl. Just a suggestion thats cheap and u could do chips and dip with veggi and fruit trays on the side.

My baby shower is the last week of august so it will be hot I'm doing ceviche (incase u don't read spanish) which is imitation crab meat, mixed with diced tomato, onions, cucumber, cilantro, and I mix it with lemon and u serve it with tostadas it's super cheap and delicious. I recommend finding inexpensive dishes. The way I see is ur making a party to receive gifts but why spend so much money when u could have spent it on buying what u need. The less u spend the more u have for the things u didn't recieve.

I guess it depends on what time your party is? I am doing a brunch, so there will be breakfast foods and a few lunch-ish items. Obviously I will have a variety of sweets too. We are also planning on doing a punch bc my family doesn't like throwing dry parties ;) lol but I am lucky because my father is a chef and he generally prepares food for large functions so this will be a piece of cake for him!

Let us know what you end up deciding on!

I think we'll do BBQ type food.  Probably a crock pot of pulled pork,  watermelon,  potato salad etc.  Dessert and booze too obviously. We're trying to keep it simple and cheap-ish since we're hosting our own.

I'm doing finger sandwiches and lots of deserts for sure. I'm meeting with all my planners on Sunday to plan my shower for the end of August so I can get everything decided on. :) but I'm telling them to do it cheaper because it's not worth it to spend hundreds of dollars on a party. People can enjoy a party that's cost efficient just as much as an expensive party.
