Blue Food Ideas?

<p>Having a party Tuesday night. Want to serve ‘blue’ food. Here is what I have so far. Any other ideas for me?</p>

<p>Blue Tortilla chips
Blue Cheese dip with pita
Blue Cheese on crackers
Blue jello
Blueberries</p>

<p>Oh, blue drink ideas also welcome!</p>

<p>(weird this got posted first - I wrote it second).</p>

<p>donkey-shaped cookies with blue frosting?</p>

<p>Gatorade, or Powerade comes in blue.</p>

<p>Mini blueberry muffins</p>

<p>If you make margaritas with cointreau instead of triple sec, they become “blue margaritas” - yummy.</p>

<p>I dyed macaroni and cheese green one year for St. Patrick’s Day, so I’m sure you could dye it blue. (Only one person would eat the green mac and cheese because it looked disgusting, but maybe your friends have more tolerance for unusually-colored comfort food than mine did!)</p>

<p>Blue M&Ms…</p>

<p>For those over 21, I found this:</p>

I think this is the one they serve at the small bar on the right at the corner of I can’t remember the street.</p>

<p>The Blue Hawaii is a tropical cocktail made of rum, pineapple juice, blue Curacao, sweet and sour mix, and sometimes vodka as well. It should not be confused with the similarly named Blue Hawaiian cocktail that contains creme of coconut instead of sweet and sour mix, and never includes vodka.</p>

<p>A blue Hawaii is typically served on the rocks. As with most tropical drinks, there are many variations in preparation, presentation, and ingredients. Hence, it is often blended with ice, margarita-like, to be served as a frozen cocktail. Many variations of glassware are used, the more whimsical the better: tiki mugs, cocktail glasses, parfait glasses, or carved out coconuts or pineapples.</p>

<p>The base liquor is usually light rum but vodka may be partially or completely substituted as a matter of taste. Similarly, a flavored rum or vodka such as Malibu Rum may eliminate the need for crème of coconut, or the coconut flavor may be omitted entirely (coconut milk, a very different product, should not be used). Even the pineapple juice is sometimes left out in favor of sour mix. The only constant, in fact, is the name and the blue Curacao.[4]</p>

<p>Because it is easy and inexpensive to make, it is often served as a punch. At its simplest, it is a bottle or two of plain or coconut-flavored light rum, a bottle of blue curacao, a can of pineapple juice, and a bag of ice, mixed together in a punchbowl. The Blue Hawaii is seasonal, often considered a summer or warm weather drink."

<p>I never tried it, but it sounds pretty good.</p>

<p>Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer
Blue Moon (Harvest Moon Pumpkin Ale is mighty Tasty)
Crab Balls made from good old Blue Crab</p>

<p>blue jelly beans
blue cheese dressing for salad</p>

<p>Oh, sorry, I was wrong before - not cointreau - blue curacao is the stuff that makes the blue margaritas. The Blue Hawaiians sound even better.</p>

<p>cheesecake with blueberry topping</p>

<p>Wow, you guys are great! Thanks so much. And keep the ideas coming!</p>

<p>Blue Moon ice cream. Addenda- is there a reason my favorite color is blue? And plenty of blue in house? Or is it just that blue is such a nice color and happens to be associated with the political party my independent, liberal nature favors?</p>

<p>Stir some blue food coloring into mashed potatoes.</p>

<p>I can’t imagine eating blue mac and cheese! For display only…</p>

The blue cornbread looks good to me! Some strange ideas here…</p>

<p>The Blue Velvet cake looks good.</p>

<p>The Blue Deviled Eggs look like food for aliens.</p>

<p>This may not please your blue state guests, but there’s blue trout</p>

<p>en bleu - The French term for the method of preparing fish the instant after it is killed. Used especially for trout, as in “truite au bleu,” when the freshly killed fish is plunged into a boiling court-bouillon, which turns the skin a metallic blue color. (From Whatscookingamerica.net)</p>

<p>IIRC, the French also describe a steak or duck breast as “bleu” when it is very, very rare.</p>
