Frito Lay "Party in a Pinch" Giveaway

Frito-Lay wants to help ensure you never miss a beat during the holidays. With some shortcuts and quick “better for you” recipes coupled with a little flair and presentation, you’ll have your guests asking “how does she do it?” So, we bring you the “Holiday Party in a Pinch:” A few tips to prepare both the home and the pantry so you’re always ready to be the holiday hostess:”



Ambiance is everything – Keep a playlist of festive music easily accessible or stock the stereo with CDs so it’s ready at the push of a button…literally.


Add a few scented candles and presto…instant ambiance! Let guests add their touch – Keep a box of ornaments on hand and ask your guests to add one to the tree.


No clean-up necessary – Stock-up on a supply of holiday-colored paper plates, napkins and utensils to lessen post-party clean-up. And if the house is tidy before you head out for the day, there’s no scrambling once they arrive!


Stock the pantry – Have some “better for you” Frito-Lay products on hand to lessen the stress of “what to fix?” and allow for more time to visit with your guests. Frito-Lay’s Tostitos Scoops or Baked! Scoops -- with a delicious dip -- are true crowd-pleasers.


Serve on a festive platter or dish and presto! …festive snacks ready to share! Entertain with ease – Always have several fun board games accessible to keep guests entertained.


And a few kid-friendly movies or simple crafts will keep the little ones busy while the adults socialize.







They would like to help you prepare for your next “better-for-you” holiday party in a pinch by offering a gift basket assortment of Frito-Lay products, decorative serving bowl and a guide to entertaining guests during the holidays (valued at approximately $40) for one of my LUCKY readers!!

  135. My favorite Frito-Lay product to use for a Party in a Pinch is the Tostitos Salsa. It's just so versitile!

    1. Put it on top of a block of cream cheese for a dip.

    2. mix the Tostitos Salsa with cream cheese or melted cheese for a dip.

    3. add it to black bean dip.

    4. Use it in a layer dip for a nice shot of color in a glass dish.

    5. Use the Tostitos Salsa to rescue a pot of Chili or other spicy dish when there just isn't quit enough heat.

    6. TACOS!!!

    7. Let's not forget that you can even just pop open the jar and dig right in with your Tostitos Chips!!

    With the different intensity levels you can satisfy everyone.
