While writing the Chicken & Cheese Roll-ups recipe to share with y'all, I decided it'd be a good idea to share with you the other things we did for Mike & Becca's shower last weekend. Aside from the cakes, everything was an idea from Pinterest, and all of it was delicious! Brad thought so too. :)

First off, instead of the usual veggie tray, we took this idea from Pinterest. I will never do a normal veggie tray again! Isn't this great?! I love it. It cost nothing, besides the veggies, because we just collected a few vases & martini glasses between the three of us.
-VEGGIE TRAY DISPLAY!-

Ours is much smaller, of course! Otherwise it would have been too much food! But it is cute, i think! We got lots of compliments on it, haha! Like my "eat your veggies" sign?! I had food labels for everything (a first, but it was fun!), and i didn't want to just put "VEGGIES" on this one. ;)
-GRILLED CHICKEN WITH SPINACH & MOZZERELLA-
Tara made these, but she made them bite size! She also topped them with sundried tomatoes instead of roasted red peppers. They were perfect! PIN & RECIPE
-HAM & SWEET POTATO BITES-
Just realized it's a Southern Living recipe. No wonder i liked them! Ashley made these. I forgot to get a picture, but they were SO GOOD! I was unsure... but man! Delish!

-SHRIMP NACHO BITES-
Ashley handed me one of these and said, "Here. Try this." I like to know what something IS before i taste it, but perhaps i was feeling adventurous? It was SO GOOD! When she told me it was made with chickpeas?! Brad's favorite food & something that is good for you!? Heck yes. PIN & RECIPE
-CAPRESE STICKS-
This is basically a bite-size salad! They turned out so cute! She used a black olive instead of the sundried tomato. I'm sad i didn't get a picture of ours, because they were pretty!! Haha.

Hmmm... I think that is about it! We also had a few other things: deviled eggs, baked pasta, bbq sausages, my chocolate chip pound cake, a white cake (with strawberry filling and cream cheese icing - from albertsons of all places - it was AMAZING!!), and a gorgeous fruit tray!
{YUM!}
