10 Vegan Appetizer Ideas for Your Super Bowl Party


Hey everyone!! Who’s excited for SUPER BOWL this tomorrow?!?! I know some of you are … and I’m sure the guys in your household are counting down the hours!! Well, we all know that with the Super Bowl comes BEER and TONS of appetizers soooo today I wanted to share a few vegan appetizer ideas with you for your Super Bowl party!! A vegan spread can be JUST as delish as your typical football party spread, you just need to know what to prepare … here are some of my fave ideas!!

1. Beer

What’s a Super Bowl party without some brewskis?!?! ?

2. Popcorn

This is just a staple!! I love watching people eat popcorn when they are totally focused on something … just grabbing HANDFULS of it and shoveling it into their mouths … while popcorn falls everywhere … you know what I’m talking about! I love adding vegan butter (some people use coconut oil!), salt and nutritional yeast to my popcorn!! Here’s a recipe for Vegan Cheezy Popcorn (opens in a new tab) and one for Seasoned Popcorn (opens in a new tab)!

3. Veggies & Dip

I know … this is the sort of thing you expected, didn’t you?? Welp. It’s always good to have a some cut up veggies and dip (I like hummus!) to snack on … you gotta compensate for the beer, right?!

4. Potato Chips

I LOVE plain chips … no dip needed for me … just plain, salty, crunchy goodness BUT you CAN dip your chips in my fave garlic sauce (opens in a new tab), which I like to do from time to time!! Tori (opens in a new tab) was just recently working on replicating this recipe and I think she’s going to be sharing it on her blog soon … all I know so far is that she used 18 heads of garlic … YUM!!!

5. Chick’n Tenders

Ok, these have got to be one of my FAVE appies!! Gardien’s Crispy Chick’n Tenders (opens in a new tab) are my go to … let them crisp up in your oven (make sure not to flip them around too much, let them do their thing!!), pull them out when they’ve reached your desired crispness (the crispier, the better, for me!!), toss them in a healthy amount of Frank’s Hot Sauce (opens in a new tab) and dip them in Daiya Blue Cheeze Dressing (opens in a new tab)!!! I’M DROOLING! Also, if you’re not a hot sauce fan, just leave them plain!! They’re delish either way!!

6. Veggie Taquitos

These are always great with a sweet chili dip or a plum sauce. You can find either veggie or vegan Taquitos, Spring Rolls or Dumplings at most grocery stores in the frozen foods section!!

7. Veggie Meatball Subs

You have to have at least one appetizer that will fill you up and last a little longer in your belly with all of that beer you’ll be drinking so veggie meatball subs are perfect for this!! Love & Lemons (opens in a new tab) has a great recipe for these, you can check it out here (opens in a new tab)! Also, if you don’t feel like making your own “meatballs”, I love Gardien’s Meatless Meatballs (opens in a new tab), they’re delish and once you have enough marinara on top you can’t even tell that they aren’t meat!!

8. Nuts

I personally love to snack on pistachios, I would pick flavoured pistachios for a football party! You can’t really go wrong with these … unless someone is allergic to nuts … be cautious. Lol!!

9. Veggie Sausage

Field Roast (opens in a new tab) has a really good veggie Italian Sausage (opens in a new tab) and The Very Good Butchers (opens in a new tab) also makes some delish vegan sausage!! This is awesome on it’s own dipped in mustard!!

10. Vegan Charcuterie Board

You can also make an epic Vegan Charcuterie Board (opens in a new tab) for your Super Bowl Party in replaces of all of these other appies!! I made a huge one this summer and it was soooo good!! If this is something you’d prefer to do, make sure to check out my post here (opens in a new tab)!!

  1. Great ideas! I agree, popcorn is a must! My fiancé is a vegetarian and I’ve been brainstorming ideas all week. I was going to do the veggie chicken nuggets but I never thought about tossing them in hot sauce. I love that idea!

    Thanks!

    Lauren

  2. Hey Jillian,
    So not a Super Bowl comment but just have to get your advice. I have a small extra closet in my room with a Hvac system in it. What would you do with it?
    Thanks
    Emily

  3. I wish we had Superbowl in England, everyone seems to love it in America and it look like so much fun as another excuse to celebrate. Some amazing ideas here and I will be using them for my next get together, even though it won’t be for the Superbowl! The Veggie Meatballs sound amazing. Thanks for the inspiration.

  4. Hey Jillian! Some lady friends and I are doing a girls weekend in Kelowna this summer and I was wondering if you have any vegan friendly restaurant recommendations? I feel like it’s so easy to DIY stuff at home but going out is a whole other story.

    1. They are vegan meatball subs!! There are a ton of great recipes online!! Or, you can even buy vegan meatballs frozen and then cover them in marinara sauce!! XOXO

  5. I love all these ideas for vegan super bowl party appetizers! Thanks for including my vegan cheesy popcorn in your roundup! Also, that Vegan Charcuterie Board? Delicious!

  6. I’ve been searching everywhere and can’t find that garlic “cream” sauce that you have shown in your Instagram stories (not recently, that’s how long I’ve been searching) – I believe it’s vegan and has a bottle top like sriracha…help!

  7. Yummy !!!

    I found best dishes for next super bowl party.

    I can easily buy and make at home without much effort.

    Thank you for sharing this amazing ideas!! So Delicious….

  8. Do you remember where you found the recipe for the meatball subs? My bfs 30th bday is coming up and I would love to make those for our “beers and cheers” themed party!
