The Best Vegan Super Bowl Party Snack Ideas

by Kaitlyn Wylde

Football snacks are notoriously geared towards carnivores and cheese lovers. The wings, the chili, the sliders, the meatballs, the pizza, the cheese boards, the cheese-dusted everything, the bacon-wrapped everything — it's not an easy party platter to navigate when you're vegan. Whether you're hosting or you're going to someone else's house, it's hard to know how to please everyone — or if you'll even be able to find anything to eat.

So you won't starve, offend your host, or leave things up to chance, you might want to consider whipping up a few simple vegan dishes that are so delicious, you won't become the buzz kill who came with a bag of leaves. Bring some high-brow vegan snacks that don't go untouched by the meat-eaters.

They're just the kinds of snacks that are flavor-packed and comforting that you forget they don't have meat or cheese.
