While it may not be possible to have proper get-togethers right now, the hope for a return to normal life is on the horizon and with that come fantasies about parties and social gatherings where we can finally cook for our favorite people again. The next time you finally get to host, consider using these group-friendly recipes.

Everything Bagel Pigs in a Blanket

Pigs in a blanket are a classic appetizer universally beloved by kids and adults alike. This recipe from Jason Goldstein of Chop Happy is great for a few reasons. First, it can be made the day before and refrigerated for maximum convenience. And it adds the twist of everything bagel seasoning for even better flavor and texture.

Portobello Mushroom and Cream Cheese Taquitos

Taquitos are another party classic as they’re both delicious and convenient finger food. Taste of Home‘s twist on it, inspired by an episode of Top Chef, uses mushroom and cream cheese for a rich, crowd-pleasing taste.

Party-Ready Potato Skins

If you want a recipe that’s pretty much guaranteed to disappear in a flash, with nobody leaving even a crumb or a fallen bacon piece on the plate, this Better Homes and Gardens recipe is the one for you.
