For some reason people consider the words "holiday party" to be among the scariest in the English lexicon. Well, we don't. Yes, you'll certainly need to create the guest list, send invitations, plan the menu, pair the wines and decorate the house... maybe that is a lot of work.

Check out three festive holiday appetizers that taste delicious, are super simple to prepare and cost as little as 29 cents per serving:

• Brie with Cardamom-Scented Clementine Chutney
• Pita Chips with Sweet Potato Mash and Smoked Almonds
• Seafood Cucumber Stacks with Lemon Cream and Chives

If you’ve done any holiday meal planning lately, you know that there’s no way you are going to feed 100 kids for $10 in the U.S., but the World Food Program can.
