I've been asked for help. I need to find finger food recipes! Good thing I love recipe hunting. So here you go, Mom, here are some good recipes that I hope you can make:
Malaysian Chicken Satay
No utensils required! Easy clean up.
Asian Noodle Salad
Good make-ahead recipe. Probably tastes even better the next day. Just be careful that you don't overcook the noodles because they might get soggy.

LUMPIA! I don't have grandma's recipe in my brain right now...but call her up, make some! Or ask her to make some for you. For those of you who don't know what lumpia is, it's basically a Filipino egg roll. Here's a recipe. It uses ground pork. In my family, our lumpia is pork-free because some of us don't eat red meat. So instead of pork my grandma poaches chicken, cuts it up, and adds it to the vegetables. I like it a lot better that way. I've been raised with it, so I guess that's why. Whatever floats your boat!
Quinoa Salad
Quinoa Salad
This website has a great variety of quinoa salad ideas. But remember, recipes are just like formulas. There is always room to be creative with the ingredients and flavors. As long as you cook the quinoa right, you really can't mess up...unless you have a terrible pallet I guess. Also don't mess with dressing ratios. But yeah, other than that you can get as creative as you want! Use flavored oils, experiment with different kinds of vinegar. Add some spices, fresh herbs, vegetables, whateva you like. Just make sure you taste, taste taste. That's the only way you know something's gonna taste good. You don't want to serve something to other people if you wouldn't eat it yourself.
Cut up some pita bread and/or veggies. Pretty easy do-ahead recipe. And something new! Kind of looks like guacamole. Sounds yummy!
Good luck, hope you can use some of these recipes!
