7 Veggie Super Bowl Snacks That Will Be A Sure Touchdown

A guaranteed win with your carnivore friends

1. Quinoa Sliders

Minimalist Baker

As much as I try to refrain from eating meat, the one thing that can always throw me off the wagon is… the burger. The smell gets me every time. Seriously, it's gotten to a point where I will intentionally avoid walking down a block that has a "Shake Shack" on it. So trust me when I say that these crispy, quinoa based sliders are not only super healthy, but also give a fair fight to any fat, greasy, divine burger. View the full recipe here

2. Spiced Tortilla Crisps with Hummus

RealSimple

Score. It does not get much easier (or healthier) than this. Growing up in the Middle East, I’m awfully sensitive when it comes to my hummus, so I tend to go for the fancier brands (or simply make my own). But if you’re planning on hosting on a budget then the good news is that with the right seasoning, any hummus can make you feel like you’re on a Mediterranean adventure. View the full recipe here

3. Veggie Pizza

Making your own pizza doesn’t have to take hours or require a certain skill. Though somewhat untraditional (served cold), this recipe is a big hit with me and my friends. We even tried different variations of it in a make-your-own-pie pre-game frenzy. I’m pretty sure there’s still some broccoli under my fridge from the bloody food fight that went on that day, but totally worth it. View the full recipe here

4. Vegan Pigs in a blanket

In past years, whenever I would have friends over for veggie game day, the carnivores of my social circle would have a hard time hiding their disappointment when facing the lack of pigs in a blanket on the table. Last year I gave up and followed this simple vegan recipe and boy, what a crowd pleaser it was. Not the healthiest snack to serve your guests, but at least you get to show them that life without meat can taste pretty awesome. View the full recipe here

5. Salad on a stick

Is your diet low on greens? So is everyone else’s, probably. My belly seems to be under the very false impression that a salad isn’t a “real” meal. That’s why when the time comes to choose sides, I am unfortunately more inclined to go with carbs. But hey, if it’s on a stick, who can resist? View the full recipe here

6. Grilled Veggie Tortilla

Your meat-enthused guests will not miss the beef/chicken one bit with this healthy, hearty dish. Zucchinis and peppers are always great, but feel free to play around with your vegetable of choice. View the full recipe here
