Space-themed Food Ideas?

I posted in the fun & games forum, but I think this is probably a better place for it.

I'd like to throw a Yuri's Night party on April 12th, and am looking for some fun space-themed food and drink recipes that are healthy and easy to make.

I could probably find some vegetables and cheeses to cut into star shapes, but I want to do more than that. Any suggestions? Is anyone else throwing or participating in a Yuri's Night party?

:glasses: :drinker: :glasses:

    Just creat your own cocktail or fruit punch and give it a spce themed name , also you can buy space food which could be quite fun

    Yeah, TANG!

    I think you also need something that is coloured bright green!

    I'm honestly not sure what you could do about all the food--just cook things and give them space-related names or something, I guess. Cut them into shapes....

    Dehydrated astronaut foods, perhaps? Not very appetising, but might be funny.

    Hubby wants Dippin Dots. Expensive, but you CAN have a bucket of them delivered. Should be interesting.

    Take a cookie-cutter and cut out star (or moon)-shaped cheese and sausage! Served with Ritz crackers of course.

    Bright yellow cake balls for the sun (or planets if you're artsy).

    Tang! Absolutely!

    Rocket-shaped cake

    Mmmm... dehydrated ice cream sandwich. Yes, I admit it, I looked to see how much it would be to get some delivered to the UK when I got a craving several months back. A tad too pricey.

    *bump*

    So far, it looks like I will just be cutting meat, cheese and veggies into starry shapes. I guess that'll do...
