BYO Superbowl Snacks

By Megan, on February 5th, 2012

Despite my brief brush with the flu, I was finally feeling more like myself today–> just in time to have a few friends over for a Superbowl watching party. Normally, I’m not much of a football fan, but I can’t help but get swept up in the big game! It ended up being quite the nail-biter at the very end, too.

And it’s not a Superbowl party without lots and lots of food, right?

Since some of our friends are still following a modified Paleo diet, and others are not, we asked everyone to “bring your own snacks” to share– so everyone could have something to munch on.

We provided:

Veggies with a raw Carrot-Ginger Dip. (my favorite!)

“Sour Cream” & Caramelized Onion Dip with baby carrots. <–this was a surprising hit, even with non-goat-cheese lovers!

Vegan Nacho Cheez Its.

And Flourless Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies, which were probably the biggest hit… only 2 were left by the end of the game!

(Recipe coming tomorrow!)

I was a happy camper with all of the snacks above, but it’s not surprising that some of our friends wanted more traditional Superbowl fare, too…

…and I think everyone was covered!

Overall, it was a great way to enjoy the game with friends, without having too much extra work in the kitchen. Oh, and can I say I’m very happy with how the game turned out?

Stay tuned for the cookie recipe–> I’m pretty sure I never need to make a traditional cookie again. Ever.
