Anyway, apparently for Americans, the Super Bowl means finger food. What better opportunity to be completely narcissistic, and show you which of my recipes you should make this weekend?
So here goes, my top vegetarian finger foods - to eat with or without getting sport (ugh, exercise) involved.
Microwave Potato Crisps
Crisps - the ultimate finger food. A batch of homemade crisps takes just minutes in the microwave, and you can fully customise your flavour combinations. (However - I wouldn't recommend making these for a large party, or minutes might turn into hours...)
Veggie en Croute / Veggie Sausage Rolls
Mini versions of my veggie en croute would make perfect little vegetarian sausage rolls - and lazing on the sofa all afternoon definitely calls for a bit of junk food (nobody needs to know that it's not actually all that bad for you).
Carrot and Cheddar Bites
If this isn't an occasion for making my carrot and cheddar bites, I don't know what is. Crunchy on the outside and soft and cheesy inside, these bitesized treats won't last long. If they make it to half-time I'd be impressed (ummm... does American football have half-time?)
Margherita Pizza Cups
Pizza's great (understatement of the century), but it can get a bit messy, and who wants to be rushing off to wash your hands every five minutes when you're trying to watch the game? Try these individual pizza cups instead.
Easy Lentil Patties
I'm picturing these easy lentil burgers in some cute little slider buns - perfect TV food.
Simple Stuffed Mushrooms
What's better than a juicy mushroom stuffed with garlic, cheese, parsley and breadcrumbs? ...anyone?
Corn and Feta Potato Cakes
Cook up a batch of these and watch them disappear. Unbelievably light and fluffy (so you still have room for all the other stuff).
Nacho Roasted Chickpeas
Okay, who am I kidding - this isn't finger food at all. But there was no way I could leave these off. I still dream about these chickpeas.
No-Bake Cookie Dough Bites
If you're after something sweet, try these cookie dough bites - they're egg-free, so feel free to eat the whole batch... or something.
Greek Yoghurt and Strawberry Filo Tarts
For something a little on the healthier side, try these cute little filo tarts with Greek yoghurt, fresh fruit and strawberry jam.











Everything looks good! awesome!
ReplyDeletei am american and I don't watch the super bowl, but i just might have to so i can make all this wonderful food!
ReplyDeleteYes, America has halftime. Beyonce is singing during it this year, haha. I don't really watch football, and especially since the Pats aren't in it (my "home" team) I won't be participating. But all this food looks great!
ReplyDeleteAll of these appetizers look and sound absolutely amazing. I love your photography as well. Can't wait to try these, thanks for sharing!

Wow! I want to try all of them! Your blog looks incredible! Nettie
ReplyDeleteHi Becca,
ReplyDeleteI just found your site via the FoodBlogs directory - you have some great recipes here! I'm also a vegetarian and I like what I've seen so far - especially the Greek yoghurt and strawberry filo tarts (being a Greek-Australian and all!)
I have just started a vegetarian blog of my own and am interested in like-minded bloggers to share ideas and inspiration. Please drop by if you get a chance.
