A Mid-Century Menu || 1950s Hors d'Oeuvres & Cocktails | VINTAGE COCKTAIL PARTY RECIPES

There's nothing more glamorous than a mid-century style vintage cocktail party. 1950s and 1960s cocktails and finger foods (aka hors d'oeuvres, appetizers, nibbles) are so fun to prepare and eat. Sometimes there are bizarre vintage recipes and sometimes you come across a winner! That's the adventure of recreating mid century recipes!

In 69, my Grandmother had the best Cocktail Party. I got soo drunk and Grandmother sent me to get more booze in her 59 Cadillac, I ran off the road a little. Then a friend of my Grandfathers lost his glass eye in the onion dip. He was too passed out in a chair to notice. My Grandmother started stirring the dip and pulled up the eye on a spoon, my Mom walks in from the kitchen and screams at the sight. My Grandmother says its just an eye it will look better when I rinse it off. I was only 11 and felt fine the next day, wow what memories!!

I love seeing your 1950's recipes because you're vegan so I may find something I would like to actually try, although I must admit most 50's recipes sound a bit disgusting lol! Your presentation is beautiful and of course you look stunning in your cocktail outfit 😍😍

[MrsTurntables]

Lovely 🐝 you are so beautiful and creative. Thank you so much for this fun video. Love seeing you in the kitchen and having a virtual happy hour with you. Wish I was there in person girl ❤❤❤ much love from Sonoma County 🍷

[alexandragatto]

You look stunning Bee! I'm very excited for this series. I did shout "oh no!" aloud when you showed the "recipe" for the pb & k dip though haha 😂😫

[michelletackett]

I need to try this. I love peanut butter.

I was able to adapt Dylan Hollis' vintage recipe for avocado bread to be sugar & gluten free. It was delish. So silky

We call that measuring with your heart ❤

My parents gave parties in the 50s. Women in skin tight dresses, men in suits. Hired help serving canapés and martinis.❤❤

How beatiful are you increasingly becoming! Best compliments, from a '50/'60 passionate!

Very realistic hair and dress. Barely remember (born in '55') but recall my Mom looking and serving simaler goodies.

[bestanali]

Miss bee can you make videos about moms beauty routines back in 1940s or 50s? I mean like easy quick hairdos or makeup or what to wear...I used to be vintage lover put red lipstick on and curl my hair everyday but now I'm a mom of six months old twins and I have no style at all 😂

[alexg]

I thought the pin wheel tea sandwiches looked good and I like them being small. Both dips are a no go.

[bassbuddha]

Have you ever tried cheese fondue? Very 50's-60's,

[lindamarconi]

What an incredible video! Thank you very much. You belong in Hollywood, in motion pictures. Always watching in Arizona.

[Turkeyinthehay]

Love your vibe, but honestly the best part of this for me was learning that France insists on truth for labels. If it's not meat, don't mention it. If it's not cheese, don't mention it. I wish Canada would adopt this philosophy.

[raraavis]

Well, that didn't turn out half bad. I would probably enjoy all of these 😅
Although peanut butter and ketchup is a weird combination.

[manuelvalenzuelamolina]

Ok. 👌👍.
Olive oil, for all, better.

🫣 I don’t think Parmesan is vegan, do you use a vegan version??
