Stumped on what to make for your friend or family member’s baby or bridal shower? Don’t stress, we’ve got you covered! Check out the best dishes for showers below.
Main Course
Sandwiches
These are the easiest dish to make, serve, and eat. I only have good things to say about sandwiches served at showers.
Chicken Salad with Grapes (this salad on croissants is always a hit)
Lettuce Wraps
Soup in Bread Bowls
You can buy bread bowls at WinCo, making meal prep super easy. Make a soup on the stove and put it in a crockpot to keep it warm while serving.
Salads
Side Dishes
Parfaits
Fruit Salad
Dips for Chips, Pita Bread, or Veggie Cups
The classic dip made of ranch seasoning and sour cream is addicting and always a crowd pleaser. Here’s some other dips from our recipe database that are sure to please.
Drinks
(This is also good with grapefruit juice instead of orange juice)

Tips
Don’t provide those tiny little plates. If you have a lot of options for food, it’s best to just provide normal sized paper or plastic plates. Your guests will be glad you did! This is also very smart to do if you don’t want to have a lot of leftovers after the shower.
Make sure you have plenty of seating. You don’t want anyone to have to be standing up because their isn’t room.
Provide tables if you can. Most people don’t love eating with their plate in their hand or on their lap.
If you have a trash can hidden behind a cabinet, pull it out and put it in an obvious place so your guests don’t have to guess where it is.
