I am going to a a friends BBQ and want to bring some kind of snack. It will have to be something I can prepare the night before as it is a Friday and I will be going straight from work. They have te salads covered. I know I could make a dip but I was wondering if there is anything else?|||I always get raves from my mexican dip. Put a layer of refried beans in the bottom of a bowl(size depends on how much you want to make), add a layer of mexican corn(I get the one w/black beans), then a layer of salsa, sour cream, shredded cheese and then sprinkle on some sliced green onions. You can add some green chilies or jalapenos. Bring a bag of tortilla chips. Yum, enjoy!!|||chips, drinks. ask if they needs bread/buns, or even plates, napkins, or plastic-wear. even dessert!|||Make thick, homemade chips (with the whole rustic look going on) with the skins on. It'll take about 30 mins but it'll be worth it|||One of my faves that doesn't require much prep and you can make the night before:

Salami wrapped grape tomatoes

Ingredients:
Container or two depending on # of guests of Grape Tomatoes
1 container of herbed cheese spread like Alouette
1-2 packages of good sliced salami
toothpicks

Spread a thin layer of the cheese spread onto a slice of salami. Wrap around grape tomato and secure with toothpick. You may have to try a few to get the hang of how best to wrap the salami.
Can refrigerate over night!|||here are some options...:
