We are having a football themed party for my son in a week (he will be turning 5). I found these cute little football shaped bowls that are only about 1 cup in size. I have no idea what to serve in them! It seems like they would be too small to put snacks in (goldfish, raisins, m&ms) because there will be 13 children, as well as 10-13 adults. Two or three people through the line, and I would have to refill the bowls! Other items on the menu are several pizzas from my sons fav pizza place, fresh fruit tray with homemade fruit dip, tossed green salad, cheesy/chicken dip in the crockpot served with tortilla chips and football shaped pretzels. I could maybe put some diced jalapenos and olives in two of them next to the dip.....I wouldn't NEED anything else, but these bowls are so darn cute and they were only a buck a piece! Any ideas? I have four of them.

What can I do next?

Go get a few more and put the kids cake in them when its time to eat the cake or make them into the goodie bag you send home. put some candy or cookies in them and into a goodie bag they go. something the kids can reuse over and over rather than a pc of junk that just goes into the landfill or do like the other posters mentioned and put parm cheese, maybe dip for fruit or veggies, olives, pickles etc....

"Pizza toppings"...
- Bleu Cheese
- Parm Cheese
- Red pepper flakes
- Hot sauce

Fruit dip in the middle of the platter
Salsa to go with the chicken dip

If you have enough, load them up with candy, wrap the candy in some celophane, attach a "thanks for coming" note and you have a cute take-home treat!

Just make sure to label them so that folks know what's in there!
