If you're throwing a party, you've got to have great snacks for your guests. But that doesn't mean that you need to serve only rich and calorie-heavy foods. We have lots of healthy appetizer ideas to keep your guests at the snack table happy!
No one can resist a dip so make sure to surround one with veggies or healthier pita chips. Healthy, protein-filled appetizers such as our lazy deviled eggs or party shrimp will fill you up while curried cauliflower bites are a great way to add a veggie to the table.
If you're bringing an appetizer to a party, consider bringing a dip like edamame hummus that travels well and doesn't need to be warmed up. Our easy marinated olives is another appetizer that travels well.
