Postgame Highlights: Super Bowl Snacks

Chocolate Covered Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Cookie Dough Footballs

As promised in my last post, I have some pictures of my Super Bowl snacks to share with you.  I make no apologies for my lack of presentation.  The game had already started.  We just wanted to eat it, not move it around to get the best lighting! 

Katie made the hummus, flatbreads, and olive dip, along with some empanadas.  (Those were quite impressive but not vegan so I didn't photograph.)  Brian even put on his apron, dug out the fondu pot, and whipped up a fancy queso dip (also not vegan but I kinda wished it was!).  Oh, and we had some guacamole from Garden Fresh Gourmet, plus both yellow and blue corn tortilla chips.

Everything was really delicious.  I loved the bean dip and the hummus and flatbreads were amazing.  Oh, and those football cookies?  YUM!! 

Hummus
Whole-wheat flatbreads
Creamy Kalamata Spread from Veganomicon
Fresh veggies for dipping
Black Bean Chili Dip (with tortilla chips for dipping)

Superbowl

 
Are you excited about the Super Bowl tomorrow?  I'm not a football fan but Brian is so he's looking forward to it.  I'm hoping for some good commercials.  I'm not sure which team will win, but here are a few recipes from the blog that will surely win over (ha ha) both vegans and non-vegans alike!


Tony and Katie are coming over to watch some of the game.  I'll be making other people's recipes this time around.  We're going to be having chips with a variety of dips, veggies, hummus, flat bread, some meatballs (for the guys), and cookies for dessert.  Two of the recipes I plan on making are linked below.  (I'll post pictures of the spread next week.)


What's on your Super Bowl menu?
