I'm barely even aware of football, but when I have a movie party or game night, or other such snacky party, here are some of the FFV things I serve: Pita and/or veggies dipped in hummus and/or baba ganouj Baked tortilla chips and homemade salsa Kettle corn (we have a popcorn popper that doesn't require oil; I add a few tablespoons of sugar just as it starts popping, then salt the result) Chili and cornbread if it's in the winter Bruschetta (baguette slices baked, then spread with a little roasted garlic and topped with chopped tomatoes and basil) Roasted garbanzo beans Kebabs (with veggies, seitan, tofu -- whatever I have on hand) Fresh bread and homemade jam to spread on it (I usually offer butter, but it's not required) Lots of drinks, including Italian sodas, which are fun party drinks I'll probably think of more, but those are the main ones right now.

Guest guest Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 Rootbeer, Dehydrated tortilla chips, salsa , homemade chili beans and whirled peas guacamole. For the guacamole, thaw a box of frozen peas, and blend, using as a substute for avocado in your favorite guacamole recipe.

Guest guest Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 The pea guac sounds great. I've done a similar thing before like a thick split pea soup that we've used as dip for tortia or veggies. Just take dry split peas, carrots, onions or whatever you usually put in your split pea soup and add water only not quite as much as for soup, cook till it's thick. You can also cool and blend it to make it smoother. Sorry I don't have exact measurements. My favorite " pizza " is to take a crust (your own or store bought) and spread pureed beans on for " sauce " . We like great notheren pureed with a little garlic and just enough water to make it spread. We've also used chick-peas. On top of that spread carmelized onions (you can carmelize in water it just takes longer.) Bake like you would pizza. For us Pizza is the traditional superbowl food.

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2010 Report Share Posted February 7, 2010 Mmmmm, I like the pizza idea. I'll have to try it out on my sone that doesn't like sauce (but still eats cheese) - I usually make him a " white " pizza...perhaps white beans whirled with a little garlic and salt can be a tasty sub for his traditional white pizza?
