Birthday Party Food Ideas That Aren’t Pizza

Kids are the biggest birthday party animals out there. And what do you get at birthday parties? Pizza, pizza … and more pizza. Nothing against ‘za (it’s so quick and easy!), but for a choice less ordinary, go with one of our picks. Flip through this album for six choices, from bao buns to mini meatloafs, that are a welcome change from cheese and tomato sauce.

Bao Buns

The squishy hot Chinese steamed buns from Wow Bao are perfectly sized for little party people. Buns stuffed with teriyaki chicken and whole wheat edamame will please the kids, while adults may want to kick up the heat with spicy Kung Pao chicken or spicy Mongolian beef. For more variety add a tray of pot stickers, filled with chicken, veggies, or pork and cabbage.
