Maybe Mom was wrong — it is okay to eat with your hands! There’s something incredibly satisfying about a hands-on meal, and, even better, there are less dishes to clean afterwards (total score!). We don’t think finger foods should be limited to dinner parties or game night, so we’ve dug up some recipes for bite-size munchies that are perfect to kickstart your day. These frugal finger foods are flavorful, easy to fix, they freeze well and they’re fun! Now you have no excuse to eat boring bagels ever again.
