The Food Necessities for a Friend’s Movie Night
Nothing is more fun than a movie night with friends. The word beautiful should more aptly be used to describe this occasion. Forget the hustle that comes with putting on those uncomfortably high heels or that awkwardly tight dress and hitting the club like nobody cares. Forget dancing around to those head blasting rhythms or taking several tequila shots only to wake up the next day with a head-splitting hangover and a tone of undone chores waiting for you. Movie nights have become a more chilled and cost friendly way to spend a night with friends.
Some nights you just want to sit in with your good old besties watching a series of animated movies or that Girls Night Out movie while munching away on those tasty food bites, sipping on that expensive wine, curling up on the sofas, laughing your heart out. These are the days we remember after years have passed; the days we reminisce on a hot Tuesday afternoon in the office with a pile of papers on your desk.
Creating the best movie night requires just enough effort so that you can all enjoy the day and not run out of ideas to make the night memorable. A good movie night requires planning and some thoughtful ideas. You have to choose carefully which movies you will watch but most importantly on what foods you will eat. The most interesting part is usually coming up with a food list to make the night unforgettable. Your friends are most likely to remember what the food tasted like than how the movie ended. Why not both?
Do not lose sleep planning on what food bites you should buy because I’ve got your back! Here is a comprehensive list of must have food bites to make your movie night not only memorable but also unforgettable. Always keep in mind that you can choose to make lighter food bites or a bit heavier meals depending on your friends’ liking.
Popcorns
Popcorns are a must-have. This is because they are super easy to prepare and easily available at any store. You can choose to add flavour to the popcorns by using the salt and vinegar mix or caramel. There are several ways to twist the ordinary popcorns into a burst of flavours.
Chocolate chip cookies
Everyone loves cookies. Add some chocolate in it and you create magic. You can choose to buy them at your favourite cookie store but if you have blessed hands like I do then you can make some good healthy home-made chocolate chip cookies for everyone to enjoy.
Cheese balls
The classic cheese balls are a must-have. Everyone loves cheese and cheese balls are most likely to clear out first in any party. I specifically enjoy the Planters cheese balls.
Sparkling Martini
Nothing works best like a cold glass of Martini.
Fruit punch cocktail
You can also choose to create a smooth blend of orange juice and pineapple juice with a bit of rum. Works every time.
Orange flavoured Cupcakes
These are quite easy to bake at home. I personally enjoy the orange flavoured cupcakes with vanilla cream and some toppings.
Spicy roasted chickpeas
Anything spicy is a necessity to have on a movie night. Why not roast some chickpeas with chilli or paprika and see the magic you will create.
There are a million foods you can make to spice up the movie night. These are just a few bitings that anyone can enjoy. Movie nights are a perfect get-together that strengthens friendship bonds. The next time you decide to end your week in the club think of all the sweet memories you can create at a movie night.
