Bake desserts that are easy to eat, such as churros. If you'd like to take the healthier approach to making them, bake them in the oven instead of frying. To give them the same crispy, fried texture, set them in the broiler for a few minutes after baking.

Seating is essential for any party. Give your chairs a Cinco de Mayo flair by spray-painting folding chairs in different hues. Photo courtesy of Society Social
