This came through my library’s donation pile the other day and of course someone said I just had to have this delicious example of late 1970s cocktail party food. Honestly, this could have been my parents’ party. I know both my mom and I sported the neck scarf look on more than one occasion, and “harvest gold” along with avocado green were THE colors of the late seventies.

The recipes are right out of the 1970s handbook. They aren’t too bad, and very typical of what would be served at a generic house party in the Midwest in the late 1970s. (Although I can say I never did get to try Tofu Teriyaki Appetizers.)

Have a groovy time in the kitchen with these fab recipes.
