Learn How to Make Over 500 Finger Foods with the Holiday Finger-Food Combination Generator [Food]

Finger foods are great for holiday parties, and the varieties you can make are almost endless. All you need are 3 ingredients: a base, spread, and garnish. Mark Bittman's finger-food combination generator (like a flowchart for foodies) suggests hundreds of possibilities.

For the base, consider not just crunchy bread or pita chips, but also veggies that make great containers, like celery sticks. Add a spread (the "glue") for the main flavor, such as hummus or pesto. Then, finally a garnish for added flavor and texture: minced bacon, perhaps, or nuts. Voila! Hors d'oeuvres for entertaining.
