    You could make a plate of nachos to go with the chili.
    Arrange some value/basics tortilla chips on a plate, top with some salsa (either from a jar or homemade - you could also serve salsa in a bowl) and grated cheese* (again could have a bowl of cheese - lots of people like chili and cheese), and microwave for 1-1.5 mins. Not really authentic, but tasty and not too expensive.


    *depending on who I'm serving it to, I often top the cheese with some sliced chili for those who like it hot.

    It's only a game

    Pizza cut into small pieces.
    Chicken wings spiced or not.
    Chicken pop corn
    Bruschetta with toppings, i.e. mozzeralla and sundried tomato
    Various small crackers, e.g. ritz with a topping.
    Sandwiches cut into small triangles.
    Antipasti e.g. meats and cheeses.
    Sausage/cheese and onion rolls.
    Cocktail stick foods (I know it's a bit 70's but I did them for a kids party and the adults loved them and I didn't think they would lol)
    Dips and things like bread sticks.
    Pate with something to spread it on.

    Hth!
    There's a storm coming, Mr Johnson. You and your friends better batten down the hatches, because when it hits, you're all gonna wonder how you ever thought you could live so large and leave so little for the rest of us.
  • perhaps try to keep it mexican. spicy chicken wings, nachos and meted cheese and lettuce over the top, green salad, plain nacho crisps, dips, quesidillas (tortilla with cheese/cheese and onion/cheese and bacon on, fold in half and grill), get some cajan spice and toss chicken/steak/veg in it and fry, make some mini fajitas, loaded potato skins..............
    are you going to serve rice with the chilli? if not, halved jacket potatoes might go down well.
    Also a jar of jalapenos, bowl of cheese, sour cream, guacamole, salsa, ................
    will you have any vegetarians attending? worth asking incase you do

    Thing is, not everyone likes spiced food, although I love Mexican!

  • I always get some of those cheap bamboo skewers and make salad skewers, chunks of cucumber, different coloured peppers, fresh pineapple, cherry tomatoes, olives etc. You can do the same with fruit as well. I fine these are always super popular.
    I was off to conquer the world but I got distracted by something sparkly :D
