What could I roll them in instead of nuts?The hen (bride to be) doesn't like nuts!
I am looking at making nibbles for around 16 people for a hen's party & am after easy, but yummy recipes.After looking at past threads I can't seem to find any I really like.Does anyone have one they'd like to share?Thanks in advance :)

andrea1978, cheese balls are not a popular item in our house so they're not something I make but for some coating suggestions, how about crushed cracker biscuits, cumin seeds, poppy seeds, sesame seeds or herbs e.g. parsley?
For a great choice of cheese ball/log recipes I suggest that you go to:-
and scroll to the bottom of that page where you can access/download the Trademe Cooks recipes and in the TMC "Odds & Ends Drawer" you'll find a whole thread called "The Good Old Kiwi Cheese Ball (or log) - that's where there's that great selection of recipes, and a variety of coating ideas too.
Hope that helps.:-))

When I used to make them years ago I rolled them in curry powder - always went down well.

Your welcome.I used to do mine with just 250g jar of gherkin relish, 250g block of philly cheese, 250g grated tasty cheese and 250g grated mild cheese.Mix all together and roll in curry powder.That was the 80's thing for us - haven't made them for years - maybe overdose on them back in the days lol

Poppy seeds are great, but they tend to stick in the front teeth and look like little black fillings.

You don't really need to roll them in anything, as cottagerose said, but I have rolled them in mild paprika (not smoked) just for a nice look!
