While we wait for the days when we can finally resume face-to-face get-togethers, the current norm is to hold all festivities online—including random chika sessions and weekend e-numan nights. Of course, a party won’t be complete without yummy nibbles, and Zoom events should be no exception.
There’s no need to spend on expensive takeout or deliveries, though! You can make your online meet-ups extra special by whipping up these easy-to-prep snacks at home. Here, we’ve rounded up four of our fave party food that will have your friends drooling from afar.

Toss each onion ring into the mix to coat. In another bowl, combine the remaining flour mixture with 1 egg, 1 cup milk, and 1 tsp ground pepper. Coat each onion, then dip in bread crumbs.
