When football season rolls around, it’s time to break out my lucky jersey and my favorite homegating recipes. Last season I felt like a bad host… some of my friends have switched to a plant-based diet and I didn’t have much for them other than celery and carrot sticks. So, I’ve been working on translating some of my recipes.
I want my plant-based friends to have some yummy food waiting for them when they come over to watch a game.
I’m known for making dips. Seriously, everyone LOVES my dips (They are the perfect food!) and with the help of Gardein, I was able to create a Vegetarian Cheeseburger Dip. It was a huge hit and tastes exactly like a cheeseburger with the works!
Eating plant-based doesn’t mean you can’t have dishes with a meaty flavor. Gardein has a variety of great apps and entrée’s that would be great at any watch party!
