Vegetarian Food Vegetarian Food Getting Started Easy Vegetarian Recipes Vegetarian Holidays From Jolinda Hackett, your Guide to Vegetarian Food Vegetarian Superbowl snacks should be quick and easy to prepare so that you can spend time enjoying the game, or screaming at the TV, depending on who's winning. You also want to make sure that you don't run out of food, so prepare plenty of extras, and don't forget to shop for plenty of beer and extra ice for the cooler if you need to! Enjoy your vegetarian or vegan Super Bowl party! Super Bowl Snacks It's just not the Super Bowl with out plenty of munchies, and being vegetarian doesn't have to mean missing out on spicy buffalo wings and greasy chili cheese fries. You can find my vegetarian and vegan versions of these classic game day flavors here. Keep it healthy If you'd rather eat on the light side and pass up the wings, here's a few lighter snacks that are still absolutely munch-able: Apple and soy nut butter pita pockets (pictured) Toasted pita chips with edamame hummus Stuffed mushrooms with walnut pate Vegetarian mini meatballs See More About:  cooking for kids  high protein vegetarian recipes  fruit recipes Bean dip Bean dip is always a safe stand-by. Vegetarians and omnivores both like it, and it's good for men, women, kids and adults. A true crowd pleaser. Several of these bean dip recipes are vegan as well. Sure, you could just pop open a can of bean dip from the 7-11, but why not try making your own?

Today From Jen Hubley, your About Today Editor At least three times this week, someone has suggested to me that we all run away to a warmer climate. I've enthusiastically agreed each time. At this point? I'm just waiting for someone to come up with a plan. Secret Mexican Beaches Step one: Choose a place to go. My only requirement is that our destination be beach-oriented. I'm even willing to negotiate on waiters with drinks. (Although I think we'd be better off, honestly.) A Visual Tour of the Beaches of Puerto Rico Top 10 Florida Beach Vacations How to Pick the Right Caribbean Island Generally, when I think of beaches, I think of our local beach growing up, or I think of destination beaches like Florida or various Caribbean islands.
